If

regrets in the wind a faded picture held tight her love, I wasted in agony I stagger alone, I search yesterday....

By all means, Rick, let people know about the work you are doing. It's very important to provide people with disabilities every opportunity for growth and development. I used to work at The Advocacy Center for Persons with Disabilities and never had a more rewarding job. Good luck in obtaining your certification! I'm proud of you, my boy. Let's see that blog. Love, Carolyn
