How To Handle My Nasty Neighbors Part Five - Nasty Neighbors, #5

What is photophobia?  Well, according to definition it is "painful sensitivity to strong light."  Now, of course, who wouldn't have that problem?  It's why we wear sunglasses!  But it is much more than that!  Ironically, you won't find the information I offer in this book on the Internet and that's because most people are not aware that photophobia is an 'umbrella' term referring to how the eye filters different forms of light and for some, can cause reading and writing problems.

Not Dyslexia, It's Photophobia

I guess I was lucky to live in a neighborhood for thirty years before trouble came-a-knocking. Now, as a retiree, who worked as a public-school teacher for forty years, I felt I had a right to live in quiet surroundings, as well as not having someone violate property rights, which would affect me!  This a true account of what I did to try and eliminate these problems, and it's not something I'm proud of doing!  All personal information, such as names, phone numbers, license plate numbers, etc. are not revealed in my story, due to privacy laws.

How To Handle My Nasty Neighbors Part One - Nasty Neighbors, #1

Margaret Brown, a public school teacher and the mother of three children, each having a different disability, has an unique story to share.  It begins with Lauren, her oldest, having a central auditory processing disorder and later being misdiagnosed as having a bipolar disorder.  Margaret's life becomes even more challenging when her second-child Andrew has cerebral palsy and pervasive development disorder (autism).  Then later, she gives birth to Katie, who has juvenile glaucoma and photophobia (not dyslexia).  All three of her children were either labeled as being a slow-learner or mentally-challenged.  In addition, her children were falsely-labeled as having ADHD. In her book, she describes her roller coaster ride in helping her children to overcome the obstacles in learning to live with a disability, the labeling that goes with it, and their ability to succeed beyond society's expectations, from a change in their diet and a belief in themselves.  All three children graduated from a public university with honors.

Finding the Truth:  Why My Three Children Have a Disability

Je pense que vous êtes toujours subjectif parce que vous avez toujours un point de vue, mais je suis toujours en quelque sorte curieux de savoir quel est le point de vue avec lequel je ne suis pas d'accord. Il y a une vérité là-dedans parce qu'il y en a toujours.

J'ai surfé une fois dans le golfe. Je n'appellerais pas vraiment ça du surf. C'était comme un ex-petit ami me poussant dans les vagues ou quelque chose. C'était mon expérience limitée.

Des salutations de joyeux anniversaire et des voeux les plus chaleureux, aussi aujourd'hui, demain, tous les jours être vraiment heureux pour vous.
