  • he got it very very bad

  • I hope Tyrone's writings can be brought to greater public awareness. I challenge anyone to read his book, "Big Changes Some Day", a collection of Tyrone's essays and poetry, without being deeply moved. In it we see into the innermost being of this young man. We see his profound thinking and his abiding faith in Jesus Christ. Music therapy plays a huge part in helping Tyrone and Lyndon. Dr. Paul Hoelzley, the boys' music therapist has set several of Tyrone's works to music in an accompanying cd.

  • We are from Australia. Our 4 year old son has baffled Doctors and paediatricians with his condition labelled as Global Developmental disorder. After seeing this

    video we are seeking a diagnoses with our paediatrition. This condition Global

    dispraxia is very similar to our sons condition and severity looks to be on par.

    I acknowledge the frustration and challenges you have endured...

  • I wonder if these boys have looked into service dogs? I know that service dogs can help with stability issues and ADD by allowing them to focus on the dog. Petting the dog in class may ground them so they can focus on the lessons better.

  • Absolutely amazing. I can't wait to share this with my little boys teacher, peers, & family.

  • I'm Dyspraxic, i have poor co-ordination skills, i suffer with dyscalculia, and short term memory issues,

  • im from the uk and i have dyspraxia and dyslexia im not very bad like the two lads with my dyspraxia but it effects me with my cordination my mes mory (short term memory) and some tasks in every day life but with my dyslexia i have problems mostly with maths what annoys me the most ishow people lable us as thick or stupid

  • @tatugirl1

    yep,same here!

    i think most people do not understand it and assume i am stupid because i fail at maths and i am slow at completly work. I almost feel as if i have to proof myself as not being stupid, but of being of average intelligence in college.

  • I just describe it as being wired differently when asked about it. My heart goes out to those lads, being hit so severely must make life extremely frustrating. For me it's an invisible disability, effected me mostly while I was at school where it remained unchecked for years - once I learned to laugh at my own clumsyness it became much easier to deal with.

  • I fucking hate dispraxia

  • I'm a fellow Canadian. I have a fairly severe Dyspraxia, but nowhere near to the level of these two poor boys. I tend to have most difficulties with hand-eye coordination, fatigue, memory and backwards thought processes. I'm lucky in that I tend to excel in written language and english skills.

  • Dyspraxia seems to be a fairly unknown phenomenon. Most people I try to explain it to are completely unfamiliar. While this is less the case in the boys in the video, in my experiences this is made worse by the fact it's an "invisible disability". Many people have even flat out refused to believe me, saying I'm just lazy, awkward etc.

  • @kwaal

    exactly like me,

    for a long time i thought it was my persona and i found it odd that many people had the same traits as me.

    this is bang on me though,what you're describing :P
