I have been involved with children with special needs (autistic, dyslexic, Down syndrome etc) for more than 12 years. I am an active member and a ‘core leader’ of a support group of parents with special needs children. I have also invented a gadget to help them learn mathematics in their home (this invention came from a vision after my prayer). Being motherless since the age of two, I understand how it feels like to be unwanted, unloved, struggles, fear etc.

As a former civil and structural engineer, and with God’s help, I am about to start a special centre (gardening, fruit farming, vegetable farming, livestock faming, baking, handicraft, etc) for young adults with learning disabilities. Purpose – help them to be independent.

I have also decided to start a magazine, to bring in the families together and to bridge the gap of people in need and people who wants to help. It is similar to the magazine from New Zealand entitled encourager where families with special needs children can feel belong and be encouraged.

I have read the articles in the internet…and I must say, it is very informative .
My request is this – Is it possible to reprint the article – one article a month.
Purpose – to give as much informations as I can and to make the magazine more interesting. ( rather than only talk about special needs.)
It will also benefit you if you like for me to link your page to the readers.

The success of the magazine contributes greatly to the success of the special centre. In Malaysia, this people have little or no support from the “authorities”

To know more about my work I have a blog (which is now under construction) to tell you more of the things that I am doing, log on to abundantlink.blogspot.com

Thank You, and please reply me soonest. I hope to hear from you.
