They have been through so much with him, with therapy, doctor’s appointments, and school, but he is doing amazing. Her daughter is six, and she is exceptionally precocious, social, and creative. Her husband, Carlos, and her have been together for 15 years. They love hiking, movies, Netflix, wine tasting, the ocean, friends, and family.
