….. Imagine a world, in which people respect and understand their true relationship to Nature. Cycles of life and death, the change of seasons and renewal, provide rhythms, that can bring us closer to understanding our connection to Life. Children who are challenged by terminal illness, and their families, suffer tremendous stress and sorrow. Every effort needs to be made to enhance a sense of well-being in the child and their main guardians. What if parents had the possibility to be with their daughter or son in a peaceful garden of Beauty for one or two weeks? What if they were given that special space and time, to reconnect to each other and Mother Earth? Many families in our modern world are restricted to urban environments, where city parks do not offer the safety, quiet, privacy and cleanliness that are so important in cases of illness. Hospitals provide vital medical care; however a clinical institution usually does not offer a place where children can be in direct touch with the Earth. Yet, the health benefits of being in Nature, especially when coping with serious disease, are well-known. The Earth Child House Association has dedicated itself to create a protected natural environment for terminally ill children, inside a specially designed greenhouse dome. A small jungle with plants, birds, fish, little creeks and fountains form a biosphere, full of natural light and the sounds of life. Mothers and fathers can stay with their children in comfortable rooms, that are connected to the biosphere.
