It sounds like you are having trouble with this though. See if you can find a "log out" button in case someone else has signed in? Otherwise, you can e-mail me directly and I can give you our mailing address. That way PayPal doesn't get a fraction of it anyway. Thank you, whoever you are!Shastahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01013565031179610593noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27546414.post-26676722647254565772011-10-15T13:24:38.866-07:002011-10-15T13:24:38.866-07:00Speechless.

Didn't know about your blog until today, and didn't know your need for Feldenkrais. If you need donations, how is this done? Sending love meanwhile!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27546414.post-1086941935827274852011-06-30T07:23:08.766-07:002011-06-30T07:23:08.766-07:00I'm impressed - excellent explanation.

Indeed. This is one of the reasons I work so hard to educate parents on methods that do not help - wasting time and leading to secondary effects. <br /><br />BarbaraAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27546414.post-73641928297931497472011-06-21T11:33:13.860-07:002011-06-21T11:33:13.860-07:00Hi there!

The cochlear implant issue is definitely interesting. A wonderful example of people society considers "imperfect" saying "there's nothing wrong with us, what's wrong with YOU?"Shastahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01013565031179610593noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27546414.post-13281626597835018312011-06-10T06:04:40.300-07:002011-06-10T06:04:40.300-07:00Actually, although there was no condition where ba...Actually, although there was no condition where babies were purposely deafened, the cochlear implant is a perfect corollary. When deaf babies receive cochlear implants within the first year, they do amazingly well, and develop speech and language that is close to on par with their normally hearing peers. However, if you wait until the child is a few years old, or, as some in the deaf community would like, until the child can decide for himself, the critical period is lost. No matter how hard the child tries, he or she will never be able to understand speech with the cochlear implant the same way those implanted at a young age can. Their auditory nerve went without stimulation for too long, and loses the ability to process the meaning of the sound.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
