You have captured a brief moment of their lives and managed to capture the entire history of their struggle. I could feel their pain. I too have a daughter with a severe disability and the struggles are 24 hours a day 7 days a week. It can wear a family down and I am so lucky that it hasn't worn mine down. We are so grateful for people like you that can capture such overwhelming feelings with a portrait. You did an amazing job. I would love for you to photograph our family. This was amazing!

I have worked side-by-side with Linnea and her staff on this incredibly moving project. It;s been such an honor to meet these wonderful families and their children. Their strength, dignity and insight into themseleves and life is awe-inspring and Linnea has done an incredible job capturing it all. Dr. Feldman of the Stramki Center is truly an amazing and humble man.
