Please don't be sorry... you have enough on your plate!
Amanda is 28 years old. She was born with Quadriplegic Cerebral Palsy, mild retardation, and developed a seizure disorder when she was 7 years old. She has Kyphosis and Lordosis of the spine and is wheelchair bound. She can't talk, but does communicate fairly reliably when asked a series of yes or no questions. She attends a Medical Daycare in Whitemarsh for about 6 hours a day, 5 days a week (ideally). She really enjoys going there. I know she can't wait to get back to her normal schedule!
