A friend of mine was looking for something on ther Adderall website and saw this: www.adderall.com/ty/I think it is SO GREAT to have a celebrity not only admit to having ADHD but admit that medicine has helped him. Take that you stupid Tom Cruise!  |

But isn't it GLORIOUS to see ADHD in a POSITIVE manner? I love watching the stories, I cry every week, they are so inspiring. But Ty makes it easy to love him and his ADHD.
With the right positive factors, our kids have a bright future! Just think, his MOM was a school psychologist and he went undiagnosed and untreated for WAY too long. So, no more self doubt for our parents who wonder if they are missing something with our kids. She was a lady who was trained to identify the difficulties!
THANKS TY! You were our hero before, and now you REALLY are our hero!

I CAN'T WAIT TO GET CAMI TODAY AND SHARE THIS WITH HER!!
She loves him as much as I do... we both fell for him while on Trading Spaces... and this just makes me love him that much more. I am so proud of him already for the work he does and now this!
Trid, I'm glad you brought up the point about his mom. I couldn't help but wonder about that.
Linda, I thought about Paul while reading this too. You always say how much he loves working construction. Just think, Paul could be the next Ty!

Just think, Paul could be the next Ty! I'll watch! And he can start with my house! Patrick will be the apprentice! His scout friends call him "gadget" because he knows how to use every tool there is. I called him one day while I was out, asked him if I needed anything else. He says, "yeah, stop at the hardware store, aisle 18A bottom shelf, 2/3 of the way back, there is a cordless power drill on sale for $139. Get me at least one!" Yup... Paul and Patrick I'll watch! |

Hey, if Ty can do it... So can our boys! What a fun bunch it would be! Ty's got the following, Patrick's got the tools, and Paul has the talents. They can get rid of the weird guy and the silly girls, replace them with a very energetic bunch of GREAT people!

You will DEFINITELY LOVE HIM then. He and his crew will go in and send a well deserving family on a 7 day vacation to some exciting place like Disney, and when the family comes back they find a brand new, custom designed and custom built house! Completely furnished! Often with cars or a full scholarship for the kids, or a paid off mortgage. Ordinary families faced with extraordinary problems that he and his crew find a way to ease for the family. VERY TOUCHING. |

She would be great at decorating any children's rooms. She loves all kids and has a great imagination. and hey, once Sam and Anne see it, maybe Sam can be the "Ty" of the UK! |

I was wondering, when he is sooooooo jumpy and hyper, is that on meds or off You know like when he gets the family up in the morning? Is it before they kick it. Man, I'd hate to see him if he already took it and THAT"S the after kick....imagine NOTHING getting done ;D |
