This is what Stefanie @StephARese has to say “Months without touching her (daughter), only seeing her from behind a mask, 6 feet away…, where she couldn't tell if we were smiling…. Almost every visit, I would turn my back to her to leave and melt into tears of agony.” https://twitter.com/stepharese/status/1297632474676289536
‼️ It is time to recognize family caregivers, think outside the box, and find innovative solutions to see their kids regularly.

‼️ It is time to protect the human rights of kids with disabilities.
