Michael just wants to play outside.
Many of you have asked how you can help Michael and told me to let you know if ever you can help.
Please read this, pass it along, and hopefully help us buy Michael a house with a yard and service dog.

We have worked hard to repair our credit and have not missed or been late on a bill in over three years. We have done our homework and know we can make the payments on a place that meets Michael's special needs, we just need a little help getting into it.

It took several months of trying it for 10-30 seconds at a time before Michael would wear a mask... Michael has worked hard and overcome his mask sensitivities.

Michael works so hard and has made so much progress. The smallest things are HUGE victories for us because learning takes a lot longer but my wife and I are committed to doing all we can to give Michael his best chance at success and happiness.
Thank you!!

We appreciate ALL of you who have made it your business to push us towards our goal. Thanks you.💙

Thank you all for continuing to retweet and litter your feeds with my fundraiser posts to help us get to our goal. We are making great progress thanks to all your retweets, donations and general positive vibes towards helping our family achieve success.

We hope you will continue to circulate the post at the top for us. And we really appreciate it.

Here's today's reminder for everyone to wear a mask from Michael.💙

One of my favorite videos. At the end you can hear him say "Michael" after he writes it. And he is super proud of himself, as he should be! 💙

So many accomplishments this year!

Volume up. You can hear Elmo say "give Elmo a kiss," and Michael does it!

We certainly aren't giving up on Michael achieving success on his own and have high hopes for him to eventually graduate from college.

We are simply trying to give him his best chance at success and future security.
Thank you all so much for your help.💙

Michael's first trip through the carwash about a year ago. (Palms up means curious)

Thanks to you, we keep inching towards getting out of this apartment and into a place that Michael will be SO HAPPY in.

I can't wait until I am able to post videos of Michael playing in a yard with a service dog you helped him get. A home he can have his whole life.

Thank you.

Thank you for keeping this going for us friends. We really appreciate it. Thank you!

Do you have a neighborhood in your town that all the houses put up lights and everyone parades through to look at them?

Michael really liked it this year.

The videos are mostly from walks and hikes in national forest and public parks areas. We try to find a secluded place to go play outside every day but it's not always easy finding a place every day and COVID has made it even harder.

Thank you for continuing to share the post at the top of this thread. We are making SO MUCH progress and it's thanks to YOU helping out.

We appreciate you all sticking with this and keeping it moving forward for us. We are hoping to be looking for a house by spring time and moving sometime before the end of summer.
My family thanks you all who have & will help with this.
You're helping Michael for years to come.
