International Recognition!!!

Sometimes things happen, just when you need them most, as if by Divine intervention.

Being dys-lexic is often a lonely, dark and depressing style of life.  Making a stand, and attempting to bring some light into this world - both for those who do have dys-lexia, and for those who do not - is equally lonely and often brings an unwanted response from the public.

Just last week my energy was down and I was feeling quite inadequate and depressed about some work I had been doing, but where I felt I had missed the mark with the people concerned.  I didn't feel good about the whole interaction, and went to bed giving myself a hard time, even considering closing my work right down.

However when I opened my email the next morning, the following letter awaited me.  I had no idea this survey was going on, but am just buzzing about being included in the best 25 websites in the world.

The real beauty of this all though is the link included in the letter which puts the reader directly through to those best 25 sites.

So there you have it.  No need to wade through 25,000 dyslexia sites trying to find one that really has something to offer.  All that hard work has been done already -, and here is that letter;

Hi Laughton,
I am pleased to inform you that Dyslexia as a Daily Life Issue has been recognised for excellence due to the contribution its top quality editorial offers the dyslexia world.
KwikMed are a leading health (care) provider and and are regularly covered in the mainstream national press for their professional, modern approach to healthcare. They are one of just two fully licensed online pharmacies in the USA. This year, our specialist panel of judges have reviewed hundreds of different sites from across the internet before hand-picking the very best for each category. Dyslexia as a Daily Life Issue is among the elite selection of awardees that our judges felt made a real contribution to the dyslexia category and you can see your site in lights here:

Please accept my warmest congratulations, as well as our appreciation of your continued hard work and excellent quality editorial. I hope it continues for many years to come! We’re rolling the awards out fully with our members soon and hopefully it will bring some deserving attention your way.
There are some great winners on the list, including some sites that have less exposure than your site does, and were selected by our judging panel for their unique perspective and contribution. It would be great for all if you let your readers know where they can find some great resources on dyslexia by linking to the awards. Either way it would be great to hear from you.
Once again, I would to send you my congratulations for your well-deserved recognition.
Best regards,
Lily

Ciao, Laughton
