Internet Comes Together To Help Girl With Autism Replace Her Favorite Shirt
Okay friends and family, I need your help! As most of you know, my daughter Cami has autism. For the past 4-5 years, she has been fixated on THIS shirt. She got her first one in kindergarten 5 years ago, and we have found 4 more since then, mostly on eBay. Her current one is almost unwearable, and eBay has gone dry. This shirt is a CIRCO brand from TARGET. They were sold in 2011-2012. This is where you come in. We need another "pink flower shirt", so will you please share this post or even just the photo? We will pay for the shirt and the shipping if someone would be kind enough to sell it to us. It has to be this exact shirt! We've tried similar shirts, and they don't cut it with Cami! Thank you so much!! (any size is great!)

Because 10-year-old Cami Skouson has autism, she has been fixated on the same flowery pink shirt that she got from Target five years ago.
But after constant wear, the child’s shirt became too tattered for use.
That’s why her mom Deborah Grimshaw Skouson took to Facebook with a plea for a replica.
Her post was shared over 40,000 times on social media, news stations, and radio shows until the packages started pouring in.
Over 178 shirts have been shipped to Cami’s home in Utah since the photo went viral and Target has even offered to remake the tee in larger sizes so she can continue wearing them as an adult.
“I don’t know how much she understands, but when she first saw multiples of the shirt, she was a little confused, because she’s only ever had one at a time,” Deborah told Today. “She likes to pick up each one of them, and she rubs them against her face and smells them, and just gets a big smile on her face.”
