A Memoir by
Diane Callaghan Husar

Diane Callaghan Husar is an adventurous soul with a passion for travel and a heart for working with children. Born and raised on the south side of Chicago, she has been a Youth Coordinator on board several cruise ships sailing out of Miami, Florida, the Director of Child Development for the YMCA in Eugene, Oregon, a teacher trainer on the island of Yap in Micronesia, an educator in the Chicago Public Schools, and most recently is the founder of GiGi’s Playhouse Tinley Park,  one of over sixty not-for-profit centers that provide free resources for families who have a child with Down syndrome. During the pandemic she found herself needing a creative outlet and began writing a blog called, “Everything is Copacetic.” That inspiring space led her to begin sharing stories and adventures from her life’s journey, one of which has become this unique memoir.
