My Gift: The Magic of a Special Child

by Daniela Vance Geracitano, Daniela Geracitano Vance

This work of love promotes understanding, acceptance, and peace by honouring the gifts that each child brings into the world. It offers profound insight into the mind and heart of a mother whose son was born with Down syndrome, and sends a poignant message about the immesurable worth of every human being. Healing for parents of disabled children and enlightening for health professionals, educators, and the world, this poem reveals the vast emotional terrain that the parent of a special child must traverse, often in silence, and uncovers a place of endless light and hope that can be found when one is forced to explore behond the tangible and see the soul.
