Join with us, please, and help create better futures for children with apraxia of speech.

Thank you for supporting Childhood Apraxia of Speech Association. Your contribution is greatly appreciated.

A friend has this poem on her site and I found it fiting and have posted it on ours. Please take time to read the following.

I am the Child

I am the child who cannot talk. You often pity me; I see it in your eyes. You wonder how much I am aware of. I see that as well. I am aware of much... whether you are happy or sad or fearful, patient or impatient, full of love and desire, or if you are just doing your duty by me. I marvel at you frustration, knowing mine to be far greater, for I cannot express myself or my needs as you do.

You cannot conceive my isolation, so complete it is at times. I do not gift with clever conversation, cute remarks to be laughed over or repeated. I do not give you answers to your everyday questions, responses over my well being, sharing my needs, or comments about the world about me. I do not give you rewards as defined by the world about me. I do not give you rewards as defined by the world's standards.. great strides in development that you can credit yourself; I do not give you understanding as you know it.

What I give you is so much more valuable... I give you instead opportunities. Opportunities to discover the depth of yout character, not mine; the depth of your love, your commitment, your patience, your abilities; the opportunity to explore your spirit more deeply than you imagined possible. I drive you further than you would ever go on your own, working harder, seeking answers to your many questions with no answers. I am the child who cannot talk.

On September 10, 2009 we were told that Kylie has Speech Apraxia. We have know for a while now that there was something not so right. We as the Bradley Family ask for your love and support as we move forward in helping Kylie and others with this disorder.

For those of you who wonder what Speech Apraxia is, it is a motor speech disorder that can cause great difficlty planning and producing words.

Thank you for taking the time to visit our web page and for your support.

Hugs to all!!

Thank you for your involvement!
