I still am out of it, but wanted toContinue reading “Hi amid haziness”

Dear Friends, I have been pretty good and happy lately, but a bit tired! But I wanted to share this podcast interview with Diana for Beyond Awareness: Disability Awareness That Matters. She has a Speller brother who is also an “older” adult, and they live next door to each other in San Diego. So itContinue reading “Siblings Connecting”
