Request - Off Topic (and scenario information) - Larry Reese - 07-18-2010 Okay gentlemen, as some of you know, my daughter who was born two years ago was three months early after four weeks with no amniotic fluid. She should probably not be here at all, and has astounded medical staff with her incredible resilience and intelligence. This last Thursday at her most recent developmental check up we received some bad news. Julia was found to have profound developmental delays in her speech (her ability to make the words she wants to say - she has a ridiculous IQ but the lack of oxygen before delivery, that gave her the PVL, damaged that portion of the brain that controls word formation). She's already having speech therapy with all the other therapy she's getting, but the doc recommended concentrated, private, aggressive speech work. She may never be able to talk very well at all. If that's the case, it's going to be incredibly frustrating for her. I am not a religious man, but my wife is, and if you are, I would ask that you keep Julia in your prayers. I would be forever in your debt. LR Also, I realize I owe many of you scenario files for your testing or enjoyment. I have not forgotten and will try to get these out as soon as I possibly can. Thanks for your patience, and best regards all. RE: Request - Off Topic (and scenario information) - Scud - 07-19-2010 Really sorry to hear that Larry. I'm sure I speak for everyone that you and your family will be in our thoughts. Dave RE: Request - Off Topic (and scenario information) - Mr Grumpy - 07-19-2010 I would also like to add my best wishes for the future. RE: Request - Off Topic (and scenario information) - Cole - 07-20-2010 Larry you have been a great gaming opponent and good friend over the years and I'm sure many of the Blitzers will keep Julia and your family in our prayers. Hopefully in some small way the time you spend on the Blitz and the games will help you forget some of your worries.
