		<description>Karly,
I am so glad you are speaking up!  The world needs more people like you to speak for those who cannot speak for themselves!  You are proof positive that just because you cannot speak the words with your mouth, doesn&#039;t mean you do not have a meaningful story to tell.  I am so grateful that your Mom has always believed in you and stuck by your side.  Tell You Story!  Do not be afraid!  The more you tell your story the more people will sit up and listen.  Your story will encourage others to find a way to tell their stories - one by one you will educate the world - the better educated people are about something, the less afraid they will be.  Those who  hurt people who cannot speak for themselves are the lowest of the low and they should be exposed!!
So, I encourage you to tell your story every chance you get, and I can help get the word out, I would be more than happy to do so!!!
Give Beau a hug and kiss - and a carrot!
Love Sandy</description>

		<description>Hi Karly,

I, for one, am so happy you did find a way to communicate and share your feelings with all of us!  I&#039;ve written once before and told you about my daughter, Emily, who is 7 and has Rett Syndrome.  Today, I showed her the letters on the keyboard of my laptop.  She seemed slightly interested, but was more interested in Sponge Bob at that particular moment.  We will keep trying, though maybe we should turn Sponge Bob off while working at the computer.  She&#039;s full of spunk!  I know, like you, she has alot to say, too!  

We love your blog!  Thanks for sharing.</description>

		<description>Karly,
I have been reading your blog with great anticipation, and I am amazed at the beautiful soul responsible for writing such inspiring words.  My daughter, Sophia, also has Rett Syndrome.  She is very sad and frustrated, as we have not found a way to allow her to properly communicate.  But you have given us the greatest gift of all- the gift of HOPE- and I am forever grateful to you for sharing your story.  To find a way to rescue her from the silent world she is trapped in.....that would be a dream come true.

I love the pictures of you and Beau, too! I grew up with a Morgan horse, Sunshine, who was the sweetest horse I have ever met.  He earned the nickname &quot;Houdini&quot; because he was an expert at opening any gate, and got into trouble many times for letting himself (and his friends) out of their stalls.

It has been a pleasure to read about your journey, and I look forward to reading more!</description>
