FASD Activists



Pictured above is John Kellerman. Now grown, he wrote an article (link below) that beautifully sums up his life as an FASD-affected child. His adoptive mother, Teresa Kellerman started the website http://www.come-over.to/ to provide information for other parents, since very little was available at the time.

Right after Sandy’s death, an on-line support group of FASD parents contacted us. The first note in the chain was from Teresa Kellerman, who sent out the alert after coming across Sandy’s obituary.

At the time we were barely coherent but very grateful for the contact with others who understood.

Teresa Kellerman remains one of my great heroes. Her son now joins her in presentations on FASD awareness.
