Our son, Cody, fell in the shower Saturday evening after he and our seizure alert service dog, Polly, returned from camp. (Everyone there wanted to know if they could borrow Polly for a few days to teach their kids a thing or two.)

The topic is engaging to me and I haven't yet seen much of that here. Perhaps it is morphing into something else useful and meaningful to many members, but really to the point for me.
How do others feel about the current blogs and discussions?

May 2000, I took my youngest son, Benjamin, to the doctor to have his hearing tested. I suspected that he may have some type of hearing loss, because he was not developing as well verbally or socially as his older siblings did when they wer…

Been ripped off by a teenage con artist? Here are some ideas for handling such a difficult situation, depending on the kind of fraud that was perpetrated.

Several days later, you discover your son’s AT…

Hello everyone
I am just starting to investigate this means of learning about people and how they do what they do. I am not quickly literate on how to move about in this medium so please bear with me.
