Helen, my ADD hero

My wife is one of my heroes. A couple of years back, she was diagnosed as having Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD), a condition she has had all her life but only just now realised. Despite this, she has accumulated two sets of letters after her name (a Ministry Diploma from the Bible College of NZ, and a Certificate in Adult Teaching from the College of Education at Canty University). She is a prime example of someone who copes in a technological age, even though it's a constant struggle for her. As we've researched more about the condition, we have discovered many adults with ADD who have gone for years not realising. Here's a short video we made of Helen's ADD journey, and her desire to establish a support group.
