Thanks Anita! If anyone had asked me a few years ago if I would ever have the nerve to share all these personal and private stories, I would have said they are CRAZY. No way! And look! I continue to feel empowered by each bit I put out there. i am so glad to hear that Toastmasters has started as a result of ELSA. It's such a good thing for all young people, including we who stutter, as schools more and more are concentrating less and less on communication and leadership skills. I am proud to know you as well, my friend. We do rock! Someone recently accused me of "bragging" when I share personal successes. I took it to heart and felt guilty - but then quickly dismissed it. I have learned we must share our success stories with others - it encourages them to do the same. Thanks again, and look forward to (hopefully) seeing you in 2013! ~Pam
