my father's twin sister had complications at birth. she wasn't breathing right when she was born, IIRC. it really doesn't matter anyway how she became disabled. she's 67, and has always lived this way.
she never developed mentally beyond an 8 or 10 year old, and she has a slew of health complications, including epilepsy and diabetes. being mentally disabled is a dynamic phenomenon, but that's the best way i can describe her disabilities. she can never live on her own. she has a low enough IQ to qualify for state and federal assistance that we mostly for programs to better her life. she's got a personality and feelings, the same way anybody else would. she loves my family, and especially my father. they're twins, after all.
being around her from an early point in my life has really helped to put things into perspective, and helped me grow as a man.Originally posted by twrx View PostEasy question, its a yes I work with special needs and adults and love these guys I couldn't imagine not loving my own
