The interviews, i found them to be reassuring. Some of those people were profoundly autistic, and some weren't. It was reassuring to know that you can grow up and lead a relatively normal life with this, and also that you can speak, make your wishes heard, have a voice, etc.

Very reassuring to a parent. And to a wife of one about to be officially diagnosed in a few weeks, kwim?

We have a *library* of books on autism, but i really think we'll add that one to the collection come pay day. Yes.

*hugs* to you :)

[hugs back]

There's so much diversity in autism spectrum disorders. It's incredible. I was moved by the interviews with the three brothers who all have autism. Can you imagine being that mom?!
