Culturally Preprogrammed
Tue, 04/06/2010 - 13:06Roughly 2 weeks ago I was going to reply to someone's posting and include links to some websites for resources about what I was going to say in my reply. When I went to where these resources are located, I noticed a new series of articles have been added. The series of articles is titled "How (and Why) to Tell Others about Your Epilepsy", published in Exceptional Parent magazine in June through October 2009. The one individual, a neuropsychologist, who created these articles had to wait for a certain period of time before he could provide the articles on his own website. While reading through this series of articles there are two words I will probably never forget, which are "Culturally Preprogrammed". Instead of me posting parts and pieces of this series of articles, I'd highly recommend everyone to read this series of articles yourselves.
This neuropsychologist had previously created two other series of articles ( "Beating Bad Seizures" ; "Raising a Kid with Epilepsy" ), also published in Exceptional Parent magazine, and these articles can be located in the S.E.E. Program library, at http://www.theseeprogram.com/html/s_e_e__library.html
For those of you who read these articles I'd like to ask you to please provide some feedback by posting a reply on here, so it can be shared with the neuropsychologist who created all of these articles.
Thank you.
Bruce
