Review for Invisible Disabilities Association, Parker, CO, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

I first learned of IDA from a story in our local paper. My 45 year old son had just passed away as a result of his disabilities, mostly unrecognized by the many friends he had (Will never met a stranger). I asked memorials in his name be made to IDA, new to most people.

I am now an unrecognized 80 year old. Most people think I'm much younger, not by how I look but how I act. They don't recognize the pain I am continually in from arthritis and other problems. I believe knowing IDA and their continuing work is one of the things that keeps me going and helps me put on the face I do put on. It would have helped my son emotionally and also his children to have know about IDA and read some of their information and advice.

I feel they are a great, badly needed, and greatly unrecognized organization.

If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...

Try and get it more publicity and better known. They do more good than self-serving Goodwill for instance.
