Aiyana Rose Magante
This is our beautiful 2-year-old daughter, Aiyana Rose. Aiyana was born at 34 weeks due to mommy having severe preeclampsia. She's been a warrior every single day of her life since the day she was born. She has recently been diagnosed with autism and she is also non-verbal. She started early intervention services a couple months ago. We are joining this walk to support our daughter and every other beautiful person on the spectrum. Aiyana is such a sweet, special, funny and amazing little girl and it has been such a joy to watch her little unique personality and watch her live life by her rules. This is such a new journey for us as her parents, but we are giving her all the love and support we can and we are learning new things along the way, such as how to communicate with her through signing and how to experience life through her eyes. We appreciate all the love and support she receives from her team at IRC, her RBT teachers, family, friends, and even the people we don't know who follow her journey and love her from afar <3 We love you our little rosebud. Love needs no words && your fight is our fight, babygirl.. always! Mommy && Daddy love you with all our heart!
"Non-verbal doesn't mean she has nothing to say... it just means we have to listen with more than our hearts."
