We able bodied people often ignorantly fail to recognize the strength and power of people with disabilities. This blog is dedicated to changing that misconception.

I wrote about the enormous gifts that siblings with differences bring to a family in “What’s Important.” My hope is that someday, all families will celebrate these differences rather than grieve about the challenges. Raising a child with special needs may seem daunting at first, but if there is support, it is the most meaningful adventure of a lifetime.
