Check out my post for today over at Team Aidan, a wonderful blog that talks about how they raised $40,000 for a wheelchair-accessible van, what it really means when our country balances its budget on the disabled and elderly, and what parents of special needs children want to hear and what they don't.

My post today talks about our Kickstarter campaign and how I came up with the idea. Here's a snippet:

This really seems like a win-win-win. Backers get some really cool swag, Malachi gets the therapy he needs and I get to publish a book. There’s also other, intangible “wins” like the crazy good feelings I get about other people caring enough about our struggle to do something about it and the sense of pride backers feel about helping to make something awesome happen.

Head on over there to read the rest!
