While raising my three children, I kept a child with Down syndrome and also a girl with Cerebral Palsy. I thoroughly enjoyed being a part of their development and enjoying the success of them today. My experience with my grandson having cochlear implants, involved in his progress and development has been very rewarding to me.
I fully believe in art as therapy and a necessity not luxury. I have ADD and have worked with a variety of children with different abilities and needs in the public school system.
