Tony
Purchase this photoThis little cutie is Tony. He is 6 years old and has a beautiful smile. Tony loves to eat and would eat all the time if he were allowed. His favorite foods are chicken, peanut butter, french fries and hamburgers. He uses a sippie cup and finger feeds himself. Tony is a healthy little boy who is very loving. He loves to play with his Vtech Jitterbug toys, and he adores Elmo.
Tony is mentally impaired, autistic and uses minimal language to express his needs. He receives occupational and speech therapy through his IEP. Due to injuries from his past, Tony must wear a compression garment and special shoes due to burns on his legs and feet. He is taking several medications to help him manage his day.
Tony needs a forever family who will love him, advocate for him and be committed to meeting his needs. Tony's worker feels he would do best in a home with two parents. He needs to be the youngest child in the home. This will allow him the level of care that he currently requires.
