I'm happy for you! I've been using life experience as a teaching tool for about three years ago to raise awareness about the dynamics involved in creating 'disability'.
It's always a positive experience and the old saying here applies more and more in this context .. it feels better to give than to receive.. and believe me when you're imparting part of yourself to others to make a change in their life or outlook, you will learn from yourself as well!
It's an experience worth taking and wish you luck and satisfaction!!!

yes it is a great feeling...most of my work is giving of myself..I am one of the happiest under paid mental health counselors, because I truly enjoy what I do.

Are You Strong Enough to Heal?
I know I’m strong enough to bleed
I do, each time my heart has need
Each time a see a loved one cry
Each time a dear friend has to die.
Oh, yes, I bleed; And, often too,
And I feel hurt the way you do.
But the mystery that we all must feel -
Is; Are we Strong Enough to Heal?
And take joy in each and every breath,
Lest, we slowly bleed to death.
The very best that we can do,
Is; help others in their healing, too.
