Creator's Key Takeaways

I always tried my best to raise Corey um that he I didn't want him to focus on his disability at all.

The hardest thing now as a caregiver is probably I don't know. I I think kind of pushing outside my comfort zone and just saying, "Okay, yeah, I'm excited. Let's go."

The easiest thing is traveling the worlds of course and seeing my son or spend time with my son living out his dream.

Every day, every hotel, every cruise ship, every trip we go on when we go out of our home, we're going to find an issue.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Be prepared for accessibility issues on every trip and find solutions.
Encourage independence in caregiving by pushing outside comfort zones.
Plan trips well in advance, especially group trips, to ensure smooth execution.
