Antonio loves to play on my phone which is very limited to him. Antonio was born with the heart defeat that came along with the syndrome. I didn’t find out anything was wrong with Antonio until after he was born at 34 weeks. I had 3 children at home at the time which affected myself and kids mentally and physically. Antonio siblings or 28,22 and 16 now which don’t have to much time with him because of the age gap. I had to quit my job of 16 years because his immune system with the syndrome kept him in the hospital all the time. Antonio is a very loving and energetic kid, but I have to do everything with him to keep him busy from not getting bored fast so with this help I’m asking for will help me and Antonio with every day living to keep him entertained when I can’t just drop what I’m doing at home to take care of him.

Antonio is loving talkative and very curious. And that’s what I love about him. He keeps me on my toes. He love to go to camp snoopy, Chuck E. Cheese and trying to learn skating these or the things we do the most on our free time. He enjoys being in the special Olympics every year.
