Life with Jordy: A Younger Sister's Perspective
By Marlo Engels
The Voice * Spring 2012
I have often been asked, "What was it like having a sibling who was so profoundly handicapped?" My answer? It didn't feel like anything unusual. For me it was completely normal. People might think that sounds like an odd answer, but because I was born 3 years after Jordan (or Jordy as he was often referred to) I simply accepted that he was, the way he was.
