Interviews that are intended to create a more inclusive world. Originally intended to be a book written by my students, SBSK soon grew to be video interviews of disabled people of all ages and diagnoses. This multi-media movement supports the acceptance and inclusion of all members of the neurodiverse/disability community regardless of diagnosis, age, race, religion, income, sexual orientation, gender or gender expression.

A Kid Who's Always Hungry (A Side Effect of Brain Surgery)
Wyatt was diagnosed with a brain tumor known as a hypothalamic hamartoma. After having surgery to remove this tumor, he is no longer able to control his appetite. Even a full meal will not satisfy his hunger because the part of the brain that regulates appetite was impacted during surgery. Doctors have even referred to this as "surgically induced Prader-Willi". Wyatt and his family want others to know that he is doing his best and they are proud of him.
