Casey and Jennifer Simmons live in Devil’s Elbow, a tiny unincorporated town in Pulaski County. Their son Hunter has severe cerebral palsy and epilepsy and full disclosure – he goes to a school where my Dad was previously a teacher and the principal.
They shared their favorite Hunter stories and spoke about why you should never let others put limits on what your child can accomplish.
Jennifer and Casey Simmons live in a tiny unincorporated community in Pulaski County called Devils Elbow. When their son Hunter was born with severe cerebral palsy and epilepsy, it was recommended to them that they get a divorce so they could qualify for Medicaid benefits. They didn’t.
They spoke about how insurmountable medical costs can seem and about the importance of advocating for your loved ones with disabilities.
