Who amazing! I always wanted to show others that children and adults with disability are capable of doing whatever they desire. My utmost desire is to show others how children can move from a child with disability to a full and able adult with disabilities.These videos will show you how able students with disabilities are. Take some time out and view these interested stories and meet others who can contribute to your growth and appreciation of others
