"They see that I am above all a woman and can be beautiful and sexy, and that disability is secondary," Kiewitz has said.
A-MEN.
That is exactly what I want for Max (well, minus the "sexy" part): for people to look at him and first see a great kid, not a Kid with Disabilities.
You know, I'm thinking our kids need their own ad campaign. Although I'm not sure how Max would feel about posing in a bra.
I could see a whole "Suck it!" campaign:
Suck it, cerebral palsy!
Suck it, autism!
Suck it, Down Syndrome!
Suck it, PDD!
Suck it, Tourette's!
And so on.
I am a little stumped as to what the visuals might be.
OK, then, so how about:
I am Max. I am NOT cerebral palsy.
I am Sarah. I am NOT Down Syndrome.
I am Leo. I am NOT autism.
And so on.
Whaddaya think?
