“He wasn’t answering to his name or noticing people come into the room. He couldn’t follow a simple command. We had no idea what was going on.”

Even though his condition, Nicolas has been living a healthy and happy life. He has been doing well in life and graduated from 5th grade last year.

Laurita congratulated her son on Instagram writing,

“Nicholas just graduated from the fifth grade! He won a special award chosen by the classroom teacher and given to students whose lives amplify what it means to be a leader. The students take charge of their own learning by setting and attaining goals. They are role models to their peers, as members of our community and leaders of our school”
