A most thoughtful gift...

Last year Frank and I interviewed people to serve as Ben's case manager.  This position is designed to help families like us manage all of the services and agencies that are involved with the care and help for kids like Ben.  After the interviews we both agreed on Katie.  She seemed to genuinely care for Ben and was committed to advocating for his care.

What we didn't know was that she would love him so well.

This year, as Ben has begun to ride the bus more often, it has become apparent that he needs some sort of coat that could cover him in his wheelchair while he comes and goes to the MARC center.  I was give some resources to review in finding Ben this kind of coat, but the average cost for such an item was 300.00.    While I was struggling to find another option, Katie took matters into her own hands.  She mentioned our problem to her mother, who promptly knitted this wonderful gift for Ben!

We are so grateful for the loving care we receive through Katie, and now through her family, for our dear little boy!
