Inside My Infinite Possibilities in Denton, a care facility for developmentally disabled, Artez Carmichael (pictured, foreground) shines. For his father, Brent Carmichael (pictured, background), watching his 26-year-old son grow into his independence from the dark, lonely world of autism, fills him with pride.
