Sun-Beams is a collection of links to stories, articles, photos, or videos I have come across that I believe will inspire, inform, or encourage you, as well as my favorite photo posted on my other blog, Violet Film, from the past week.
CrossFit trainer has cerebral palsy – I bet there’s no slacking in her class!
It’s not an act – I really do have cerebral palsy, says young star of Breaking Bad – For all of you who are Breaking Bad fans…
We Don’t Want A Stinking Cure – We Want Equality – She’s a bit of a hardliner, but she’s got some great points.
Deaf Mom With One Arm Is No Ordinary Beauty Queen – I’m still not a fan of pageants, but … YOU GO GIRL!
Church Flooded With Calls After Posting Down Syndrome Baby Adoption Plea – The notable part of this story isn’t that so many wanted to adopt the child – there’s a waiting list in this country for T21 adoptions – but the willingness of the parents to carry the child to term if a home could be found.

It is, as ever, a wonderful education reading these 🙂 Thanks for sharing them. Especially liked Elizabeth’s video story 🙂
Did you see the follow-up articles about that priest in the Down Syndrome adoption story, Andi? His brother has Down – and in 2008 (?) his dad died saving him from drowning in a septic tank. I meant to send you that link and I never got around to it.
No, I had not seen it, but when I saw your comment I went looking for it. Neat!
