A reminder that this website is about to undergo major redesign. At times, you may not be able to access it here. I'll let you know when the new site is up and running. But for now, remember that you can see my daily special needs posts on my professional Facebook Page here.
It was 19 years ago yesterday that we said goodbye to our beloved 12-year-old son, Eric. Just a few months later we began our first Eric 'RicStar' Winter Music Therapy Camp, aka RicStar's Camp, to honor Eric's love for music.
Camp celebrates the abilities of individuals of all ages and all disabilities. No one is every turned away from camp due to financial need. Watch for more announcements regarding our 20th Anniversary next June, and news about an upcoming documentary that captures the power and beauty of Eric's story, including the power of music to heal.
We miss Eric every single day. But his music lives on beautifully.
Eric remains my greatest life teacher. Still. 💕

It's been snowing here all day. Again. I decided that I could either curse loudly through the frosty window or go outside and frolic in the pristine snow and grab some cool images. What has been your Monday Mindset?

One of my 2021 honors was having my words accepted for the You Humanity project that is capturing '1,000 Acts of Kindness.'
I am proud to have been selected for this lovely effort for my work honoring my son and RicStar's Camp. Here's my story.

WELCOME, 2022!!
Clean slate! New choices! Dream big!
I'm looking forward to chasing some new big dreams and writing projects, while continuing the fight for better awareness/acceptance, respect, resources, and education for kids with disabilities. Support for their families, too.
This website/blog is long overdue for an update, work that is underway as we speak. But there's lots of good info on here, too. Check it out!
Continue to visit my professional Facebook page, too, where I post resources, important disability and inspiring stories daily. You can find me on Twitter and Instagram, too. Just click the links in the upper corners on the website pages.

...And don't forget to get a copy of my book: Breakthrough Parenting for Children with Special Needs: Raising the Bar of Expectations. You can find it at amazon.com (click the book image on the left) and other booksellers, including thru your independent local bookstores. My favs.
Still timely. Still helpful. That's my hope, anyway.
All for now. Thanks for visiting!
P.S. What big goals are you chasing in the New Year?
Be fearless.
