"Stronger Than the Wind" is an autobiographical one-woman show written and performed by Alice Manning.  After giving birth to her twin boys, Alice finally has everything she wants. But then,   deadly bacteria and a hospital error leave her newborn son, Aidan, fighting for his life.  With anger, humor, tears, and laughter, Alice fights to keep her family afloat in the midst of unspeakable grief.

Join Alice as she takes us on a roller coaster ride and discovers that sometimes laughter is the best medicine and, regardless of how life unfolds, she has the choice to let Love shine a Light in the darkest corners of life.

For parents, teachers and caregivers of special needs children, "Stronger Than the Wind' is a riveting glimpse into a family learning how to overcome the trauma and obstacles of life with a special needs child.

It's an event you don't want to miss!
