I was very pleased to see that you mentioned LD OnLine on your blog. I wanted to call everyone's attention to this article on Special Siblings http://www.ldonline.org/article/6060 and thought it might be a good starting point for further discussion. It was done in 1997- I present it to your users, because I think it's a classic, but maybe there are things that should be updated.
Again, thanks so much for mentioning us an doing the work of putting together the blog.
