AS A MOTHER OF AN AUTISTIC CHILD.I KNOW FIRST HAND OF THE MYSTERYS THAT SURROUND THIS DISORDER.THERE IS NO KNOWN CAUSE OR CURE.AND TREAMENT IS EXHAUSTIVE AND FRUSTRATING. BUT MOST IMPORTANT IS THERE IS NOT ENOUGH SUPPORT FOR CHILDEREN WITH AUTISM AND THEIR FAMILIES. THATS WHY I AM CREATING THIS DISCUSSION. SO WHETHER YOU ARE A LONG TIME PARENT OF A CHILD WITH AUTISM OR YOUR CHILD HAS JUST BEEN DIAGNOSED I WANT TO INVITE YOU TO PARTCIPATE.ALSO IF YOU ARE AN EXPERT ON AUTISM YOUR THOUGHTS WOULD BE GREATLY WELCOME. FOR THOSE WHO FEEL ALONE IN THIS BATTLE YOU ARE NOT ALONE. THERE ARE MILLIONS FIGHTING WITH YOU. YOU JUST HAVE TO REACH OUT THERE IS HELP I LOOK FOWARD TO MEETING AND HEARING YOUR THOUGHTS.
