Social security sent up here in an Uber for a reevaluation for my grandson who recently turned 18. Autism doesn't go away because he turned 18. If anything the autism switched things up as he got older.

I wish I didn't need this place, but they took pretty good care of my wife. They really need some help, but they are blessed with the angels they have working there. Thanks for taking care of Carla.
