Looking for Disney advice.
Hi friends. 10 months into O's diagnosis (8 year old super boy) and first time to post anything. We are heading to Disneyland next week and I'm just looking for advice from experienced parents. Have done Disney several times but never with D along for the ride. Any advice or heads up would be appreciated!
