A Different Kind of Normal
|
|
|
|
|
|
Veronica Wain, has made a film about life with her daughter, Allycia.
18q-: A Different Kind of Normal
As Veronica writes: "This film was created for other families to share with their friends, medical and health providers, and educators to challenge the way that living with disability is communicated and explore a different kind of normal. The DVD has been used by some parents as a tool for advocacy when their situation is not fully understood and is a wonderful reminder of the rich community we are a part of."
You can purchase a DVD of the movie here!
