OP - I think the idea of going to a hotel with a small group of your daughter's friends and this student is great.  However, I think it is key to talk directly to the gilr's mom to see what kind of direct assistance would be needed in terms of not only changing clothes, but also personal care.  It may or may not be too much for the student to handle on her own or too personal for a sleepover situation.

However, if this is true, have you considered starting the birthday party out with a meetup at a restaurant for dinner that all the teens might enjoy with perhaps a cake being present, too.  Gifts might even shared there, too, depending on  how you are handling it.  The teen might be thrilled to be included with the given limitations on being able to do sleepover aspect.  You and your daughter are wonderful in thinking through the various options that might work.  If a restaurant is chosen, let them know ahead of time you want a large table area with accessibility for a wheelchair user in mind when making a reservation.[/quote]
