Just a post of appreciation.

My son has a special needs assistant in school. That woman became something like a grandmother to him. She's just a lovely person.

She's also part of a program in which she actually picks him up for 40 hours in the Summer. I first was suspicious but it seems to be a program offered to all children who qualify.

As both of his parents are neurodiverse without any other family in the country it's such a great service.

Thank you, Carol.

As we all cover world events, is like to share a little about a community crisis. and other have little to no supports for adults. It was enough just fighting the schools but due to autonomy, which is great in some cases, is hazardous for others. There's not enough training for "job coaches", not enough respite, housing, or honesty in any of the above. I can't stand liars, bullies, or ppl that guilt, esp I will be filling a report & meeting with employer.

Three shifts in a row I have heard the word 'retard' from three different colleagues to describe someone they don't understand. It makes me feel physically sick.

My wife's team received a really cool shout-out by a parent who has a child with atypical needs in the school system:

Super proud of her and all of the self less people who do so much to support the children that need the most help.

I did spend time in the studio on Saturday and this is the result. I had a group of special needs adults last year, and came up with an idea that they would paint fabric and then they would design a quilt using their fabrics. I stitched it and now have to quilt it.

The thing that gets me about the Kennedy parents is that they were very aware Rosemary needed special attention and help, but routinely kept that a secret when trying to find boarding schools and living arrangements even when they were choosing those places based on her needs.
