The difference love can make

Love can make such a difference.  It made a difference for Valentin.



Love can make a difference for Giselle.



Love can make a difference for Ivan--love, and nourishment, and physical therapy. 



Actually it seems to me that all those other things are part of love.

Love feeds the child yummy food that nourishes his body and brings a smile to his face.


(Eldridge, age 3, with cerebral palsy)

Love gently encourages the tight muscles to uncurl--and brings the child to physical therapy for more help.  



(Kiril, soon to turn 9, with cerebral palsy) 

Love shows the child all the wonders of the world around him (or her!). 

(Chantelle, aged 5, with cerebral palsy)

Love helps the lonely heart to blossom. 


(Emil, aged 13, with Down syndrome and cerebral palsy)

Love can make such a difference. 


(p.s.--who wants the honor of being first to put something in Miss Chantelle's grant?)
