Abstract:	In this article, the author relates how woodworking had helped him cope with his son's illness. His son, Evan, was diagnosed with Noonan's Syndrome. Due to his desire in showing his appreciation for the medical personnel who treated his son, the author started to make wooden stools and gave these to the doctors and nurses. His project continued for nine months and became a part of his therapy for coping with his son's illness. Even after his son died, the author relates that he continued his project as support to other parents with special needs children.
