Julie try not to take all the stuff they write about autism to hear. 20 yrs nothing was known about it. So called experts were not there. It is a life by trial and error and effort. Happy turkey day!
Blogs have gone by the wayside for now- between work, school and taking care of my girls, I have no other life! I don't see it slowing down anytime soon either. Sigh.
Hope all is well with you!

There is a sense of pride, and hope and joy, that goes along with being a parent of a child with these types of issues, isn't there? You are the first person who has acknowledged that. Have you seen the site 4pawsforability.org? Might interest you. . . I just stumbled across it literally 10 minutes ago when my sister-in-law told me about it. I might have to foster a dog in training for a child! Public awareness and education is important to me too--right now my focus is more on mental illness and depression, and suicide prevention. I'm helping to organize a walk in October--once that's done, I'll shift my focus. Maybe I'll take a puppy then!
Yeah, a fellow twitterer! =)
