Thank you, Tony. I’ll find guy personally on Facebook. I’m Susan Beyer. I’ll friend you. Please friend me. I’d like to communicate by phone too. I think my phone number is on my profile. We’ll connect. It would be my pleasure to support in any way I can. We both remember the pain, ridicule and marginalization we suffered as stutterers. I was never forced to compete professionally. I was able to be a full time wife and mother. It scared me during university that I might have to vie for a position in mental health and then counsel others while I obviously had problems myself. I did work in my field as a program coordinator for an agency that trained developmentally disabled adults and established group homes, for several years while our children were in high school until I became ill, diagnosed as a benign brain tumor. My stuttering was mild so I was able to perform in my duties. There is such a need to support those who feel so isolated by the inability to adequately communicate verbally. We were both there and remember the embarrassment that led to to depression and loss of hope for a different future in society as a ‘normal’ person. We were fortunate to have had our deepest wish come true; we became fluent. The memory of our pain allows us to understand the suffering of others and give hope for improvement or total recovery. I joined the McGuire Facebook group. I’ll see you there and on our respective Facebook groups. I’m looking forward to involvement in supporting others with this puzzling disability. Sue
