Day 10 - Special People, Pt. 3

Even when Patrick was home, he needed caregivers because he couldn't go to regular daycare. We were lucky to have several different people who came to our house to watch him so I could go to work. One of them was Mackenzie. From a family of people dedicating their lives to helping others by providing emergency services--firefighters, police officers, EMTs, etc.--I knew she was comfortable handling Patrick's special needs and that if she needed help, she knew where to get it. I am so grateful for all the love and snuggles she provided to Patrick and all the time she helped give me.
