I’m a lively, happy 11 year old who just loves life. I have autism and ADHD, along with Global Developmental Delay. I’m mad about sharks and stingrays, owls (especially Old Brown! ), farm animals and horses, and puppets. In fact I have puppets to help me at school because sometimes I listen to their instructions when I don’t want to listen to my grown up. I’m a very sociable boy and I love it when people watch my iPad with me. I love giving cuddles to people I know and I love feeling anyone’s hair. I love going to playgrounds but I’m not very good at being danger aware. I have a great sense of humour. I get tired quickly because I’m hypermobile so if we’re going to walk a long way I take my wheelchair.
