Two reflections about exclusion and inclusion from an upcoming book “SNAPSHOT OF A SOUL PLACE in the Land of Special Needs” by Kari Burk.
“Perhaps the greatest obstacle faced by a person with special needs is being misunderstood and isolated from life’s processes and events.”
“Let the love for your child and the world flow and let others see that you are comfortable and not afraid. Then they might become comfortable and not be afraid either.”
Kari is an artist and landscape gardener who lives with her 24 year old daughter Mielle Metz, in Castlegar, BC. In Snapshot of a Soul Place, Kari and Mielle lovingly invite you on their extraordinarily creative journey into the ins and outs and ups and downs of their day to day with Down Syndrome.
