For all her friends http://rtlklub.hu/musorok/fokusz/videok/123491

Zsuzsa a gyógyításnak szentelte az életét, 5 éve azonban stroke-ot kapott, kómába esett és lebénult. Emberfeletti küzdelmét folyamatosan filmezték. Csodák márpedig vannak, a Fókuszban be is bizonyítjuk! The conductor who had a stroke."

Thank you Andrew for sharing this with us.

The clip is in Hungarian and it is about Zsuzsa (a daughter, a mother, a friend etc.) a conductor who had a stroke after giving birth to her daughter. She spoke several languages and helped many people throughout her working life. She was in a coma for 26 days. Conductor friends and colleagues supported her all the way through to recovery…

She is a great example to us conductors and for all professionals out there the clip is worth watching to observe what is happening in a conductive education group catering for people whose life is affected by a stroke.

Kitartas Zsuzsa igy ismeretlenul is! Egy igazi nagy pelda vagy mindnyajunknak. Sok Szeretettel, Judit Szathmary xxxxx

A wish...

There was something so heart warming when I arrived to work after a two and a half hour car journey and saw this sign on the door.

If only all day centres could have a similar notice on their doors :)

CONFERENCE ON ATTENTION DEFICIT HYPERACTIVITY DISORDER (ADHD) ON 26th MARCH AT TAJ PALACE HOTEL, DUBAI-UAE

"Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is one of the most common childhood disorders and can continue through adolescence and adulthood. Symptoms include difficulty staying focused and paying attention, difficulty controlling behavior, and hyperactivity.

Life can be hard for children with ADHD. They are often in trouble at school, can't finish a game, and have trouble making friends. They may spend agonizing hours each night struggling to keep their mind on their homework, only to forget to bring it to school. Family conflict can increase, placing added stress on exhausted parents and frustrated children. Adolescents are at increased risk for poor self-esteem and lower educational attainment. School programs to help children with problems often connected to ADHD (social skills and behavior training) are not available in many schools. In addition, not all children with ADHD qualify for special-education services.

The Conference targets to overcome these barriers and have a team approach involving parents, teachers, school psychologists, other mental-health specialists, and physicians. Transitions can be difficult. Each school year brings a new teacher and new schoolwork, a change that can be especially hard for a child with ADHD who needs routine and structure. Additional and up to date information is needed to deal with the transition.

We acknowledge the need of the society to deal with this situation and provide a venue for everyone linked to it to have a dispersal of thoughts guided by experts in the field.

This professional development conference is designed for professionals in the Medical, Allied Health, Education and Human Service fields involved in the assessment, treatment and rehabilitation efforts of and with children and adults with AD/HD.
