A Texas mom received such a kind response to her son’s unusual breakfast order at Chick-fil-A that she shared the story on social media. The incident touched thousands, as well as giving the mom a chance to spread awareness of her son’s diagnosis: autism spectrum disorder (ASD).
After visiting a Chick-fil-A drive-thru, mom Marlee Olivarez, of Edinburg, shared on Facebook a photo of her 8-year-old son, Matthew, happily tucking into his breakfast. Matthew’s hash browns, eggs, cheese, and chicken were placed in four separate cardboard takeaway bowls.
