Parent of a Child with Albinism. July 25, 2012. These are some great resources that learned about through the college courses I have recently been taking.

Parent of a Child with Albinism. You call him or her a person, not a disease. Labels that may have been acceptable decades ago such as mute, dumb, crippled, or retarded, are no longer used and are offensive to most. Some people I chose to educate and others I chose to ignore. There are only a few I’d like to smack but I don’t. There are little things you don’t think of, skills that require vision. For example, how does a baby know to open her mouth for a spoonful of food? For our windows at home, we boug...

Parent of a Child with Albinism. September 8, 2012. Last year I discovered that at Lyra’s elementary school, they utilize A LOT of parent volunteers in regular classrooms and throughout the school building. Knowing that most of these volunteers would know little or nothing about albinism, I decided to create a document with some of the need to know information about Lyra.
