Single mom to my 5 year old autistic daughter. Full-time nurse. In school to become an NP. :)
We would like to thank you for supporting Alana Gonzalez in this year's Super Mom competition. Your participation allows us to aid Children's Miracle Network Hospitals in their commitment to save and improve the lives of as many children as possible.
The most rewarding part of being a mom is seeing how much happiness we bring each other. I love how no matter what is going on, she makes me so happy and makes every feel worth it. Although she can’t talk to me to tell me, the expressions on her face when she sees me says it all. I love spending time doing fun things that bring us closer together. She is like my best friend.
What is one memory of your kids that you will never forget?One memory I’ll never forget of my daughter is when she said some of her first words. She says “so happy” whenever we do something she loves or whenever she is very happy. It’s huge because she is nonverbal so her expressing herself is wonderful.
What would you do with $20,000?I would use it towards therapy sessions that my daughter needs and private tutoring. I would use it towards ABA, speech and occupational therapies. Anything that she needs to succeed :)
