Copyright

I shamefully copy/pasted a small and neutral paragraph from the author's site, which was promptly removed for copyright reasons. Seeing as I'm stubborn and didn't see the need for altering the wording, I e-mailed the author instead, requesting permissions to include content on wikipedia, which was kindly answered and reproduced below :

> The statement below:

> who have suffered under the same affliction which ailed her eldest son."

> Should be revised to read more along the lines of:
> "She also serves as a representative of Hoover, AL on the board of the Mental Retardation/
