It's Her Life

Yesterday, Lauren made a powerful decision. She decided that she did not want to go on her "vacation" to North Carolina. This was no easy decision as she was going with her dad, whom she adores, for a week.

There was mention to her support staff that she didn't want to go but we thought it a passing thought.

Lauren has been supported in the most authentic person centered practices that I have ever witnessed. She knows that she has power over her own life and she is now exercising it. What an amazing self-advocate she has become!

I am continually amazed.
