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.
An Oasis of Care for People With Intellectual Disabilities – Some of those who most need medical care are the ones who have the hardest time getting it…except in this clinic in Louisville, Kentucky.
Meet Christopher Polisoto, who doesn’t let Asperger’s syndrome define him – As the article states, “homeownership remains the last frontier for many of those with developmental disabilities” – but not for this man.
North Jersey parents persuade insurer to treat son with autism after coverage is denied – A victory for one of us is a victory for all of us, don’t you think?
College DJ with post-polio syndrome signs off – I really loved this story. It talked about how she contracted polio because it was why she’s leaving, but it focused more on her and her interests. That’s how stories about people with disabilities should be.
