Hi Guys!
I am writing this post in the hope that Warrnambool Shopping Centre – Target, and in particular Target employee Ros, can get some recognition for their outstanding inclusion, acceptance, and general kindness.
Marshall, 5, has Coffin-Siris Syndrome, Autism Lv3, Intellectual Disability, multiple neurological disorders and much more.
And he loves Target.
Marshall loves inspecting everything (but not touching!) He has been walking independently for less than a year, and prior to that used a walking frame for a while.
Marshall is also Non-Verbal, can drool, make a lot of unusual noises, and have no understanding of danger walking around others.
The staff don’t mind Marshall being the unofficial stock inspector. It used to be just shoes, but now he inspects clothing too.
And today they made him an Official Stock Inspector.
A HUGE Thank you to Ros for arranging this, and to the Warrnambool Target store for Marshall’s lanyard and name tag. It was a beautiful surprise.
Made my day, and made me teary!
