He actually completed all of his coursework and received notice of graduation back in December, but for him, nothing is complete until he places that motorboard on his head and wears that beautiful green gown and his magna cum laude medallion and has a chance to shine in front of his peers.
When he was first diagnosed with Autism, I put this dream on the shelf and barely dared to glance at it until he had finished his Associates. Then, when he decided he wanted to try University studies, I still only glanced at this possible outcome every now and then. For many years, it seemed impossible.
This entire journey has been continuous, including summers, since 2012. The Dog Walker is truly living proof that if you want something bad enough, no matter who you are, that with faith and help from Heaven (and maybe your mama), you can achieve anything!
So proud of you, Dog Walker.
So awesome. Amazing work Dog Walker!
