Ms. Nhu called me around 10:00 AM and delivered the bad news that Kevin (the supervisor) already left the company this week, Annie (who was William&#8217;s Behavorial Technician from the beginning and now that she&#8217;s promoted to supervisor, she has been parent training Tim for about 2 months)\u00a0 is also leaving the company end of this month.\u00a0 It&#8217;s getting worse when I was told Ms. Selestie who has been William&#8217;s BT for every night at home for the past 3 months also thinking about leaving too.\u00a0 Which means the team that we love so much is about to leave us soon; and the worse news is that ABEST doesn&#8217;t have any available staffs to teach William at home.\u00a0 One thing I&#8217;m glad is that Ms. Han and Tracy will still be with William at the day care from 2:00 &#8211; 5:00 pm.<\/p>\n<p>Ms. Nhu also said that it&#8217;s ok if I want to look for another vendor; and I should look soon before July.\u00a0 Because after July, RCOC will transfer all the cases to CalOptima, then it&#8217;s gonna be harder to find a vendor.<\/p>\n<p>I cried when I heard the news while still on the phone with her.\u00a0 I just love every one in this team so much, they&#8217;re all good teachers to William; and my boy has learned so much from them.\u00a0 It&#8217;s heart breaking to see such a good team falling apart.<\/p>\n<p>I also felt bad for Ms. Nhu, she&#8217;s a very dedicated and passionate about this work.\u00a0 It&#8217;s a small company so she handles everything from recruiting to billing and doing paperwork.\u00a0 It must be tough for her that 3 staffs are leaving at the same time.\u00a0 \u00a0Because of her I decided to stay and wait until she can find a new BT for William.<\/p>\n<p>Thursday 2\/15\/2018.\u00a0 Evening session with BT Selestie at home as usual.<\/p>\n<p>Ms. Selestie told me to keep this as a secret that Ms. Nhu also is leaving the company in 2 months!\u00a0 I was so shock; I just simply thought it&#8217;s the staffs that are leaving; never thought the company is not doing well.\u00a0 Not sure what the reason is but Ms. Nhu is 1 of the most important person in the company; and if she leaves, there&#8217;s no one else can run the company.\u00a0 Once again I felt sad for Ms. Nhu; she invested lots of her time and energy into this company; she must feel really bad.\u00a0 I always admire her passion about helping children with autism; that&#8217;s why she opened this company with hoping that she can do better than other companies.\u00a0 I wish I could do something to help her and bring the company back.<\/p>\n<p>William of today is totally different than William of 8 months ago.\u00a0 Thanks to all wonderful BTs from ABEST that William has progressed so much at the rate that everyone is amazed; especially Ms. Han and Annie who have been there with William from the beginning.\u00a0 8 months sounds like a long time but to us it&#8217;s not that long.\u00a0 I really missed those days when there were times 3 or even 4 staffs came to our house at once.\u00a0 I still remembered we talked and laughed.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;d like to list the name of all ABEST staffs here so that I won&#8217;t forget:<\/p>\n<p>Ms. Nhu, Ms. Nhi, Ms. Jody, Ms. Annie, Ms. Han, Ms. Selestie, Ms. Tracy (she just started with William for 2 weeks), Mr. Kevin (supervisor).<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s so hard to say goodbye!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Wednesday morning.\u00a0 It&#8217;s Valentine&#8217;s day but it&#8217;s also a sad day for us.
