Gerald's Story

I have been avoiding posting stories about people with disabilities who have somehow overcome obstacles in life to become 'inspirational'.

This story is different, though.  It is about a team of people coming together to enable a man living in a group home to communicate, marry, and have a job outside of the group home.

This story is special to me because my daughter ( back from the Peace Corps) is now part of this man's team, and when I went to ASHA this year, I met Gerald at the group home where he lives.   Andorra (my daughter) recently shared this video with me and described him as "one of the coolest guys I know."  Please watch!   This is why I love what I do.
