And the Oscar goes to...

Well, it's finally here: The premiere of C.'s debut. After my unsuccessful attempts to film her water moves, the Hubby volunteered his services. This is the result.

The Sound of the Silent said...: What a coincidence. I was just thinking about you, Erin, and about how I hadn't heard from you in a long time. I hope you are OK. You are so right about C: she relaxes the moment she hits the water. Do you do any hydrotherapy?; Saturday, January 31, 2015

About my blog

C. is the youngest of our children. She suffers from severe epilepsy, blindness, microcephaly and profound cognitive and physical impairment.

We have faced hurdles and gained insights through our encounters with the medical, educational and governmental establishments.

Nobody was there to help or guide us.

I would love to spare parents in the same predicament some of the painful mistakes and wasted efforts we have made.

I am also eager to promote greater acceptance, inclusion and appreciation of our children. The new, heightened awareness of people with disabilities tends to gloss over our children - the ones with profound disabilities. They are a forgotten minority within this minority. Still marginalized and even shunned by many "enlightened" societies, they are a long way off from achieving equal rights.

Silenced by their disabilities, this blog is their voice.
