Boy, is it ever!
If it weren't for my faith in God, the isolation and despair I was drowning in would have driven me right over the edge.
My son now lives in a group home, which leaves you w/a dull mixture of guilt and panic that never completely goes away, but leaves you free enough to actually parent your other kids.
When my daughter (also on the aut. spec.) is finally ready, I will bring him home again.
Until then, I'm lifting weights so he can't beat me up!
Let me extend to you my personal welcome to our AutismOne Social Network. AutismOne is now the “one-stop-shopping center” for information about autism. We have the annual conference in Chicago, AutismOne radio, the Elizabeth Birt Center for Autism Law and Advocacy, the AutismOne Social Network and the AutismOne Store.
We urge you to log in on a regular basis and read the blogs and articles. If you see something with which you agree or disagree then please add a comment with your thoughts. This is an open community designed to help and support. We like to hear all sides.
Then write a blog, long or short, to express your thoughts or ask a question. I am looking forward to reading your opinions.
With my best regards,
Ed Arranga Executive Director AutismOne.org
