On this episode of Life at EASe we are discussing ways to advocate for children with special needs with Author Reema Abdelkarim. Reema is a fulltime mother and wife who has been gifted with four children. Three of her girls were born with a rare genetic disorder, which causes epilepsy, growth retardation, and cerebral palsy among other health issues. Two of her children passed away from this condition. Reema has always loved writing, but it wasn’t until her daughter was born that she began penning her feelings down. She began writing her story in the hopes of helping others who are going through hardship and dealing with special needs children. Eleven years later, her autobiography ‘Living with Miracles’ was born. Australian customers can purchase her autobiography ‘Living with Miracles’ using the link livingwithmiracles.ctcin.bio which can be found on Reema's Instagram @ reema.abdelkarim International customers can purchase it through most online bookstores, such as Amazon, Book Depository, and Ebay.
