I am in complete harmony with you. I've decided to stay in my bubble- with all my compassionate, understanding, like minded, supportive counterparts. It's so much easier that way. We need to protect ourselves from the unneeded stress of people who don't understand us, support us, or even try. Our kids are lucky! We are lucky to have them, too! With warmest regards, Leslie

It is very nice to meet you.. My Little guy Dylan was diagnosed with Autism almost 2 years ago. Today he is doing very well and has come such a long way. Its amazing to me that we can spend our days talking with people, parents, teachers, ect in the "real world" and just feel like AHH.. No one gets it! They dont understand. Then I sign on here and just read your profile and I know instantly that you understand! My sons diagnosis was a very humbling experience. I now see the blessings that came with this diagnosis and I am looking forward to sharing stories with beautiful ,strong, amazing mothers like you.

Hi Leslie
First I must say that's a beautiful picture of you and your young one.
Now 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 and now the AutismOne Social Network (and more to come).
Thank you for filling in your profile entries as these help people with common interests find you.
Helping you interact with others is one of the many things we can do for you. Now here’s something you can do for us. Log in on a regular basis and read the blogs and articles then write a blog yourself. It can be on any subject of interest to you, preferably with some relevance to autism but not necessarily. It can be short or long, whatever it takes for you to express your thoughts. If you have a question then ask it in a blog--people read then they respond. 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.
I am looking forward to reading your opinions in future blogs and/or articles.
With my best regards
Will Price, CFO

How does your garden grow? By Leslie McCann I realize the metaphor is corny, but I can’t help but indulge in the analogy… just for a moment.
We've come so far, my Love By Leslie McCann With each improvement comes new expectations.
I love the article below! I think it points out nicely that we, as parents, need to respect and sympathize with our sensory-sensitive children.
