Postcards of Awesome are a collection of postcards that share what is awesome about a person with a disability. The postcards were collected as part of the #107days #JusticeforLB campaign; LB was one awesome dude and we knew that there were other awesome dudes and dudettes out there, that we wanted to share with the world. Set 1 is available here http://www.slideshare.net/JusticeforLB/postcards-of-awesome-justiceforlb and Set 2 is here http://www.slideshare.net/JusticeforLB/postcards-of-awesome-set-2

1. I
know
that
I
will
cry
when
Ola
leaves
our
school.
It
has
been
my
great
pleasure
to
see
him
grow
into
an
intelligent,
honorable
young
man
who
has
dealt
with
bereavement,
the
confusion
that
au<s<c
people
feel
at
others
illogical
behaviour
and
coped
with
all
the
feelings
of
teenage
angst
to
become
a
role
model
for
other
adults
and
kids
alike!!!

5. My
friend
Helen
is
Au<s<c
.
She
never
sugar
coats
the
truth.
Bald
honesty
is
refreshing
in
a
world
of
spin
and
dressing
up
the
facts.
I
appreciate
a
truthful
opinion
and
a
straight
answer.
She
is
also
a
genius
and
able
to
recall
and
apply
so
many
facts
that
she
recognised
the
symptoms
of
brain
tumour
in
her
father
before
the
medical
profession!

7. This
postcard
is
from
J
–
he
has
numerous
diagnoses
including
ASD,
epilepsy
and
Ehlers-­‐Danlos
syndrome.
He
loves
his
rescued
pal,
Peppie,
and
says
they
make
an
awesome
pawsome
team!
He
loves
MinecraT,
Pokemon,
Lego
and
Peppie.
We
know
he
sees
the
world
differently
and
think
this
is
GREAT.

8. ‘Luckily
one
person
in
our
family
has
au<sm…’
Alex,
the
big
brother
of
Marcus

9. My
name
is
Charlie
I
am
16
I
am
awesome
because
I
am
au<s<c
and
that
makes
me
different
and
if
we
were
all
the
same
it
would
be
boring.

10. I
can
&
I
will.
Watch
me

11. #Jus<ceforLB
Our
dude
is
Elodie,
aged
8,
diagnosed
with
epilepsy,
ASD
and
ADHD.
She
is
awesome
because
as
well
as
being
incredibly
beau<ful
and
funny,
she
is
the
most
courageous,
tenacious
and
resilient
person
I
know.

This
postcard
is
dedicated
to
my
childhood
friend
and
distant
cousin
Gabi.
We
grew
up
in
a
small
village
where
being
different
was
to
have
a
‘reputa<on’.
Yet
she
found
a
job
and
smiled
her
way
into
everyone’s
hearts.
And
she
is
a
self-­‐made
woman!
A
proud
distant
cousin,
Luis
