This means so much to me❤️ I have a dyslexic teenager and it’s so hard to have conversation with her, it literally hurts every part of my soul when I feel like I can’t help her, I can’t talk to her like I would anyone else and she becomes numb or seem aloof. I realize how much all this makes sense to me and I thank you for trying to help those that struggle. Truly she has a big heart but it’s hard for her to comunícate and education shines a light into the world of someone going through these challenges. Thanks for all your hard work!

Fantastic presentation, thank you! I noticed that I had to sign in to like it. Of course to make a comment sign in is ok but thus may reduce likes as not everyone watching has time to sign in and just wants to like and go. My question then, is there a way you can turn sign in for just liking then maybe you will get a true reflection of appreciation for your work. Again this has been amazing for me and will definitely be using several strategies you have suggested. Cheryl
