Guest guest Posted September 30, 2005 Report Share Posted September 30, 2005 Dear Dr. Flynn and All, Hello and welcome to this forum! You will find many wonderful people here--both in/from Kenya and those in the USA and elsewhere who are working in the field of HIV/AIDS and development in Kenya and Africa--and am sure you will have many contacting you via this forum. I am posting your note to some who might be of specific help, or w/whom I think you'd like to link: Dr. Mike Meegan of ICROSS Kenya (icross@... ); Dr. Chung (mhchung@... ), who runs the Hope Center for Infectious Diseases at the Coptic Hospital in Nairobi (treatment a specialty); Dr. Joe Mamlin of AMPATH (iuteam@... ); and Father Angelo D'Agostino (also a medical doctor) of the Nyumbani Home for Children and Nyumbani Village (angelo@... ). Wams (Margaret) Gichuki has pointed out your posting to some of our members here already (and I have cc'd a couple nonprofits I am working with in the Kisii area, who are not in this forum), and I'll be happy to help network and link you with others too. I head two HIV/AIDS-related nonprofits, one the international branch (USA) of a Kenyan NGO in Mumias called KAIPPG (www.kaippg.org )--Kenya AIDS Intervention Prevention Project Group--and one an international arts coalition called ActALIVE (www.actalive.org ), whose members use the arts to address HIV/AIDS and the MDGs. We have a number of Kenyan members. With many thanks for joining us here, and for your own invaluable work, and look forward to net/working together in future! All best wishes, Janet Feldman, kaippg@... New to this website I am new to this website. I am an AIDS physician at the University of California . I will be working in Kenya to set up a treatment and education resource center in Nyamira and am interested in meeting with existing AIDS care providers in the area (Kisii area).

Guest guest Posted October 6, 2005 Report Share Posted October 6, 2005 Dear Neil, Deafimpact is afaith based organisation in Western kenya,Nyanza province,in Kisumu city,our catchment areas are the slums of kisumu and nyando Districts. We exist to empower the deaf (persons with hearing disabilities) psychologically,phisicallyand spiritually and socially to cope with psychosexual and HIV/AIDS pandemic. Approximately 76 percent of the deaf below 18years do not know about HIV and AIDS hence there is aneed for initiating anetwork targeting the deaf in and out of schools. Major health concerns among the deaf in western kenya includes the following,Malaria,Accidents,Sexual abuse and HIV/AIDS---main cause of mottality. NOW MY FRINNDS LETS THINK ABOUT THESE TO HELP THE DEAF COMMUNITY ALIVE. DEAFIMPACT. --- neil_flynn_md <neil_flynn_md@...> wrote: > I am new to this website.

Guest guest Posted April 19, 2007 Report Share Posted April 19, 2007 Hi, My name is Cherry. I live in the Burleson area....I have a 9 year old daughter who is severely apraxic....We discovered this at about 3 when she still wasnt talking. (Actually at 3 she wasnt even walking)... After quite a few years of speec, occupational, physical therapy there have been big improvements but we still have a long way to go.... My daughter also has ADHD and seems to be on a 5year old level...She struggles in school and was held back in 1st grade....She has great difficulty making and keeping friends which seems to be one of the many symptoms of apraxia..... Its so sad how society treats these children and how there peers can be extremely mean..... If you have been in this situation or are dealing with this please let me know its going to be alright... I would like to know how an older apraxic child is doing if there is one on this website...Thanks KarEN Cherry.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
