A comment made by one of the mothers that once you become the parent of a child who experiences Autism you become a parent of all children who experience Autism really struck a chord with me. That has been my experience to a substantial degree. Once I became Billy Ray's Mom I found a deep concern for the acceptance and oppportunities for all children who experience special needs. We become one in so many ways.
I am thrilled that we have a World Autism Day. I hope that somehow we can spread that not just to Autism but to all who experience disabilities.
I am sorry I have been so delinquent in writing. I am physically improving from my New Year's Eve episode and getting stronger. My blood pressure is responding to medications. I am getting anxious to get out there speaking and meeting all of you again.
I will do an update on Billy Ray in the next day or so. Also on my writing and my new book.
Until next time,

I just found your blog. So few are found on Autism. I plan to revisit and read more. Until then, have a blessed day!

Hi,
I appreciate your blog. It helps to hear about the challenges other families face. I am writing to you as a fellow Oregon mom with a special needs child. For more information about me and my situation please see www.cynthiaoregon.com
As an attorney my focus is a little different than yours, but we can all help each other out.
Great informative read, many thanks. We've been having problems with nappy rash and I'm not sure how I stumbled on this but I like it and thank you for your words.
I write the diary of the child care. It is daily life being nice, a pleasant thing, a serious thing, surprising continuation.
Please link this site.
