I am writing in regards to an idea of a possible Human Interest story or article for Specialedpost.
Rose Morris, the mother of an autistic child, Abram, designed and patented a portable enclosure bed, THE SAFETY SLEEPER, to address Abram’s sleep and night wandering issues. Subsequently Rose started Abram’s Bed, LLC to bring The Safety Sleeper to parents and caregivers that can benefit from use of the bed and make an actual difference real families lives.
More of Rose’s story and The Safety Sleeper can be found at:

Rose also happens to be the chair of a non-profit foundation: Fund It Forward-to ease the burdens of families with special needs by raising money for medical equipment.
