About

Hi there!

I am a special needs mom to a beautiful, sweet girl. Audrey has a mutation on her CASK Gene. This is a rare genetic disorder that effects her globally. It has caused a seizure disorder as well as gross motor, fine motor and speech delays. A Microcephaly diagnosis comes along with it as well. Our last 7 years have been filled with therapy, learning about our daughter’s disorder and also learning ways to cope. Finding our tribe has helped more than I ever thought possible.  Thank you for taking the time to read about our journey. For more information on the CASK Gene, please visit my Instagram @alvesmomkickingCASK and check out the  foundation at http://www.caskgene.org
