As a parent of a girl with 22q 11.2 Deletion Syndrome (22qwhatsthat.blogspot.com) and as a Trustee of a UK charity (Www.22crew.org) I have always believed that people with disabilities can be achievers they just have to do it in their own time and in their own way.<br /><br />At The22Crew we ask our members to celebrate achievements every week by posting "Friday Achievements" in our closed Facebook group to recognise and celebrate all achievements. This not only rewards the achievers but gives encouragement to other people with the condition and their families.<br /><br />#22qCan-Do Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16328563121248857191noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-447392662850613354.post-23613241164875127202015-07-09T07:16:15.695-04:002015-07-09T07:16:15.695-04:00Hi5!Hi5!EnjoyHi5!Autismhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08085023600204015047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-447392662850613354.post-80216350715949195192015-06-27T23:21:04.018-04:002015-06-27T23:21:04.018-04:00We parents know this!
