TEACH THEM TO GROCERY SHOP, HYGEINE, TRANSPORTATION, COOKING, SELF- MEDICATIONS, AND GO HAVE SOME REAL FUN WITH THEM. THEY MAY HAVE A VISIBLE HANDICAPP BUT THEY ARE REAL AND COMPASSIONATE PEOPLE WHO JUST WANTS TO BE NORMAL AGAIN. BUT THEY ARE THE STRONGEST PEOPLE I KNOW. I LOVE MY JOB SO MUCH NO MATTER THE PAY. SEE YOU AROUND, MY FRIEND. PATTI
