Earlier this year, Aubrey Miles and Troy Montero revealed that their daughter Rocket was diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder.
Aubrey continues to raise awareness on her Instagram account about her daughter's disorder as she posted a video of her bonding moments with Rocket on Tuesday, June 28.
“Last year Rocket was diagnosed with ASD (Autism Spectrum Disorder). We were confused, and not sure if it's real or not. So many things going through our minds then. Not sure how it would affect her, or us as a couple and our family.
"Today we're happier than ever. One thing I've learned from it, the more we're open about it, the more she's showing progress, improving her social skills, trying her very best to communicate and more.
"Thank you to all the understanding people we see every time we go out. You guys are amazing, and you just don't know how you help us in your own simple ways.” she captioned in her post.
