Paula




Paula is mentally and physically handicapped and has painted with her mouth since 1988.
She is now fifty years old and lives at home with her parents, Lis pictured here, and Arpini, a Rotarian who was responsable for coordinating all of our activities and family stays in Porto Alegre. I got to stay with them for one night. She is very giving and presented each of our team members with one of her paintings, of which she has stacks and stacks.

Hey from Nashville. Had a moment this morning to jump on and see what you've been up to. Sounds like you're having a great time and seeing and doing many new things. Love reading what you write. Can't wait to see you. Uncle Paul

Ellen,

I will be traveling to Porto Alegre with the GSE Team from
Arkansas this March. I was wondering if I could get some contact information for you. I would love to have the opportunity to visit with you and hear about your trip and get some advice from you.
