People with learning disabilities have talent.

Not long ago, I got a Chirsty Brown's life story of Wolverhampton library, it's called ' My LEFT FOOT' I have read it, it's very good. He had Cerebral Palsy, he could pain, draw and write with his left foot. I also read about his disability made life hard for him. For example finding it hard to communicate with people, he found it very hard to talk. This made him feel very alone in the world. 'MY LEFT FOOT' was also a film. Daniel Day Lewis played Christie Brown, he won a award for it in 1989. To find out more about Christie Brown and ' MY LEFT FOOT' google it in.

If you have disabilities,is the famous people who have your disabilities and your talent? For example I have Epilepsy and I love writing stories and poetry. Charles Dickens had Epilepsy and he was also a Novelist writer, he wrote short stories and poetry too. Please email me on sarajgorman@googlemail.com if you wish to tell me about your disabilities and talent.

Agatha Christie had dyslexia just like me, she was a crime writer. I share Asperger Syndrome an my writing talent with Virgina Woof, Shakespeare, Goethe, Isacc Asimov, Emest Vincent Wright and Charles Dickens.

I share Dyspraxia and writing with Emily and Charlotte Bronte, Samuel Taylor Coleridge, Emest Hemingway, Jack Kerouac, Hans Christian Anderson and George Orwell.

What is Dyspraxia?

Dyspraxia can cause you to have bad co-cordation problems, motor skills problems, gripping and etc can be very hard for people like us.

Foe example gripping a pencil, knife, fork, feeding skills, fastening buttons, tieing shoe laces, cooking, cleaning teeth, apply cometrics, styling hair, opening jars, opening packets, locking and unlocking doors.

Body movements.
Poor timing, bad balance, falling over easy, tripping over one's feet, clumsly, knocking and banging into people

Dyspraxia is also a Mental as well as Psychical disability, which isn't much different to Dyslexia apart from both words aren't that much different to spell either. How strange? The only difference is that Dyslexia isn't a Psycisal disability really.

Not everyone who has the same disabilities finds the same things hard. Just expect anything off anybody and any disability. Some people's skills get better than they used to be but others don't. These disabilities can also affect some people's speech.
