Gail Wright is a teacher of students who are Deaf or Hard of Hearing. She’s been teaching in a variety of settings for 27 years. Gail was diagnosed with ankylosing spondylitis in January of 2014. She enjoys exercising, hiking, being outdoors – especially in the mountains, gardening and being with great friends. She has an amazing, supportive husband and two great kids.
I was born and raised in Chicago and only left for college and graduate school. I have had AS for over 20 years but was just recently diagnosed. I visited multiple doctors over multiple years, but they could never pinpoint what was going on and I have suffered with chronic pain for many years. In my career, I work with high school and college students with ADHD. I coach families and work with schools and professionals to streamline services for my students. I am also a musician and songwriter. Music helps me in every way.
