Dear Maureen,
Yes, it's Gayle Brugler. Martha McLaughlin is a retired RN who was an Optacon
teacher with me for many years; we went to Spain together in the 80's for a
teachers' training course we offered through ONCE (she had done a training
session there a few years before with Nancy Tavis). Mary Lou Ramsey was a
teacher in the first group, and had left teaching before I came - but she was
the teacher who told me about Telesensory. Mary Lou went on to become an
excellent dentist and is now retired. Martha continued to work for the
Stanford Blood Bank after she left Telesensory, and retired a few years ago. I
really loved and respected the Optacon teachers at Telesensory and the ones I
met around the country in my travels for work.
Thanks for your comments!
Judy Adams
