Finding Dmitriy A Home: September 2010
http://ajourneywithoutsight.blogspot.com/2010_09_01_archive.html
Saturday, September 18, 2010. I wish I was able to explain my internship. Tell you exactly what I do and who I work with, but I can't. I will say that I work with children. How do we let this happen? Children don't make choices, they don't choose to be poor, to have incarcerated parents, to be abused.how can we justify punishing them? They are being punished! How do we reconcile the vicious cycle we create? Saturday, September 11, 2010. I honestly can't write much on this topic without being upset. Be wa...

Finding Dmitriy A Home
http://ajourneywithoutsight.blogspot.com/2010/11/okay-so-i-admit-i-have-been-failing-at.html
Thursday, November 25, 2010. Okay so I admit I have been failing at blogging - I've been swallowed up by my internship where I have the pleasure of offering mental health services for 3-5 year olds who have a trauma history. If any parents need some tips on techniques to work with these kiddos let me know ;). But Dmitriy is always a constant thought for me. The reality is he is getting close to transfer age and that is just plain scary. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Finding Dmitriy A Home: Blind Social Work
http://ajourneywithoutsight.blogspot.com/2010/09/blind-social-work.html
Friday, September 3, 2010. So school has started - with full force - and I no longer have any days off. Honestly one of the best parts of school (and my internship for that matter) is meeting people. This year I am a senior in the Social Welfare program (at a school ranked 9th in the country for SW! And this week we had the pleasure of meeting the juniors. I asked her the usual questions like "why social work? And she answered with:. Most social works choose social work for one of two reasons. Be sure to...

Finding Dmitriy A Home: Lessons Learned from Visually Impaired Children # 2
http://ajourneywithoutsight.blogspot.com/2010/08/lessons-learned-from-visually-impaired.html
Saturday, August 28, 2010. Lessons Learned from Visually Impaired Children # 2. While it's important for the little ones to learn to use a cane to navigate the outside world the reality is they don't need it in familiar territory. The kids can run and play around a room they are familiar with and you would never even know they are blind. I however, with perfect vision, still manage to run into my dresser atleast twice a week and have the bruises to prove it. This may not seem to suspicious yet. Funny how...

Finding Dmitriy A Home: A poem -anonymous
http://ajourneywithoutsight.blogspot.com/2010/09/poem-anonymous.html
Friday, September 10, 2010. I have to remind myself daily that you exist. And while I'm here in my everyday. Alternating in a pattern between work and home. I wonder if you've moved. And I find myself selfish. Angry at those who come home without you. And angry at the wooden rails. That surround your body. Finding them responsible for you captivity. Representing the society that will sooner. Cage your body then free spirit. I try not to picture you hungry. An empty hope that your basic needs are met.

http://ajourneywithoutsight.blogspot.com/2010/09/911.html
Saturday, September 11, 2010. Today is September 11th and I find myself surprised by how long it has been. I honestly can't write much on this topic without being upset. Please watch this video by Suheir Hammad an amazing Tony award winning poet who happens to be Palestinian, Muslim and American. Be warned it does have some language but it is SO worth watching after the kids are in bed. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Be sure to right click on the box below and then select all.
