I really liked that one, until it stopped working. In my opinion, it was the perfect size for reading and browsing the web. I haven't used a tablet as part of my daily life since then.



My son was diagnosed with Infantile Spasms when he was six months old. IS is a somewhat rare seizure disorder with those affected at great risk for developmental disabilities and autism. I can relate to the author's initial feelings and I also struggled with what I called "dark thoughts" in the first weeks after his diagnosis. Luckily these thoughts passed fairly quickly. It has been a year since his initial diagnosis, and though there have been struggles and setbacks, he is making progress and is the center of my world in a way that I never knew was possible. The experience is definitely causing me to reevaluate my definition of success and ideas of what constitutes a full life.


Interesting. There is currently a large cooking oil scandal unfolding in Taiwan.
