Since the day of her birth, my kiddo has charmed everyone while rocking out to AC-DC during our numerous hospital stays in which she continued to defy the odds.  She has changed many people’s lives and brings smiles to strangers wherever we go.  I hadn’t realized that the day she was born, so was the Mama Bear inside me. I learned to advocate and ask questions. Challenges with Lily reside outside of our control.  Learning how to teach Lily to safely eat, drink, stand, walk, talk, and many otherADLs is challenging, especially when all I want to do is spend time enjoying each others’ company and stopping to smell the roses.  I finally found those roses to stop and smell at a place calledGio’s Garden. This garden had everything I could have ever dreamed for Kiddo and my family. Fun friends, cool toys, and engaged, competent staff to give me peace of mind at no cost to us was simply unbelievable.  I say with utter certainty that their services have helped save my own mental health, marital relationship, and family cohesion.
