WORDS OFCAREWORDS OFCARE
A special child is not a curse, but a gift
... a gift which challenges us to respond
with enormous energy and dedication.
Finding a way to help that child, to be
there in the most loving, supportive and
facilitating way possible is, in effect, to
express the most powerful and humane
part of ourselves. Such a process is a
daily, moment-to-moment treasure for
all of us.
