Isabelle had an amazing time attending a camp in Oregon called Camp Attitude. It is a family camp for families with kids with disabilities. Izzy's mom, Heidi recounted the experience. "Our family had the best week and they work so hard to make it so that every camper can participate in anything. We hardly ever go places where there isn't something that Izzy can't participate in - here, they made it so that even campers in wheelchairs can participate in everything. All the kids got a "Buddy", a volunteer who was with them all week long, playing with them, taking them to activities so that the parents can go to the many parent activities (which were basically support groups for parents. It was the best therapy ever."  

"And the kids are so loved and treated like superstars all week. It was amazing to be somewhere where you see a kid in a wheelchair, or you see someone with Autism having a meltdown, and no one gives it a second glance. It's just no big deal. It was a huge blessing for Eli too, who constantly is on guard, ready to defend Izzy from anyone who says mean things or treats her badly. He could just be a kid and didn't have to worry because everyone there got it and understood and kids with special needs were just loved for who they are, rather than looked down upon for their differences."
