Education on Autism Works

Yesterday I took John for his entry to Kindergarten physical.
It was put on by the local public health nurse who I am friends with.
She was supported by other health nurses from other districts.
Wow.
Two ladies came to find me.
One has a 19 yr old Autistic son with ADHD.
The other who has a friend who raises her Autistic grandson who is 8 yrs old.
They were obviously very happy to meet me which makes a pleasant change and asked lots of questions.
We all had a pleasant chat and both asked me to contact them when I get back from the Option Institute which I will do.
So, from thinking that I am the only up here with this affliction to knowing that there are others who are dealing with it and supporting what I am doing, what a major change!
It is nice to know that I am not alone.
Maybe there is a reason that my children were born Autistic.
Maybe the people up here needed a voice and a champion.
That I certainly can do and will do.
We will beat this thing!

As an aside, for some reason, yesterday the nausea left me.
I ate 2 ham sandwiches and 2 sticky buns for lunch.
Best meal I had in days.
Then I felt sick. LOL.
