MAKING ROOM FOR AUTISM: NASHOBA LEARNING GROUP (NLG)
—————————————————————————————————————————————————————————
Boston, June 3rd, 2009 (Day - 15)
My 2 children Estelle and Damien are what people would consider as "normal" kids, living life at full-speed (maybe too fast for their parents!), going to public schools, being part of a soccer team or a swim team, and enjoying the time with their friends. In short, they are very healthy kids and enjoy life to the fullest, which makes my wife and I so happy. However, sometimes when we see a disabled child, as parents we can't help but wonder what IF...
I have known of Nashoba Learning Group for several years now through one of my best friends, John McClellan, whose wife Liz created NLG in 2003. I went to the opening of her new school in Bedford, MA last year and saw all these kids and their parents. At first, I felt a little awkward and strange because I can't even imagine what they are going through on a daily basis. But then I realized that I don't have to share their pain and difficulties. What they want and need is help! And this RAAM project is simply about helping people.

Thank you for your support,
Patrick
