So honoured to have heard today that a Purple Star has been awarded for this lens.

New modules added - Mon, 06 Oct 2008
New modules added dealing with some of the methods of treating APD together with a link to a centre in New Jersey that uses a specific method of treatment called the Tomatis method.

Also a small module quoting a question on a forum that really stunned me.

Thanks everyone who has visited, rated and favourited this lens. Every visit means that we have more people in the world who have heard about APD and this is very good!
