Thank you so much for all that you, Neal, Tracy and all of your staff have done to help Amanda… I wanted to send a letter explaining what a difference that your help has made in Amanda’s life.

I want to thank all of you for all of your efforts with today’s meeting… After the heartfelt renderings on Natalie’s behalf and the attorney for the district went on to say how well Natalie is doing at ____ and how they would wait a while for public school placement. Am I supposed to wait until my daughter shows up in a body bag to get them to understand the seriousness of this situation? I am so glad to have such a wonderful team supporting us, I know that this situation would be much more dire than it is without all of you. Brooke, you are a gentleman and a scholar and I want you to know how grateful I am to you.

I want to again thank you for responding to my e-mail, meeting me at 9 a.m. on Tuesday. Your immediate contact, references and advice, in a horrific situation, were so incredibly kind.

[My husband] and I want to thank you and your wonderful partners and staff for the devotion to our case, and for the results that you attained for Sydney… At our last staff meeting this past summer, her teachers were so impressed with her progress in such a short time… We cannot thank you enough for your concerns about the risk analysis in respect to our financial situation, and are ever grateful for your candor… We’ll keep you posted as things go along.
