Joshua has worked with many different therapists and specialist over the years and as he has aged and we have moved , some of those specialists have changed. Though not everyone who has worked with Joshua is named on this page, we appreciate everyone who has played a part in keeping Joshua safe, healthy and has looked after his developement. This list is meant as a reference tool for anyone dealing with Joshua who requires current information reguarding Joshua's relevant issues so some past therapist etc. have not been named here but that is not to say they have not made a difference in Joshua's life. Thanks to everyone who has been there for Joshua. Your skill and caring has blessed this family and this child.
We also want to offer a special thanks to all the wonderful teachers and Educational assistants that have taught our son. You have made your mark on this young boy's life. Keep doing what you do because you do it well.
