U.S. Supreme Court Hates Disabled Children
February 22nd 2011 will be remembered as the day that the United States Supreme Court, and as a result of this decision, The Federal Government, turned their backs on millions of disabled children and their families. It will be memorialized as the final straw; the straw that broke the proverbial camel’s back and hopefully woke up a sleeping giant. When Congress passed the National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act in 1986, it was the beginning of the end for modern science, medicine and ultimately our country. Sound dramatic?

Sorry folks but honestly Holidays are not fun for most families dealing with Autism. Stress strain of finances, juggling diets, patterns and preferences, and dealing with an ignorant world. I spent the season relatively quietly. As a manager by trade and a chess player by talent, I like to know where I am going. My wife will tell you that I am all over the place in the day to day but actually my dreams, hope and vision long term is alive and well.
