Thanks so much for this Lynda! I just found out today from sister in SC that my niece's youngest daughter has autism. I didn't know because anything "mental/medical" is rarely, if ever, discussed in my family (it took my mother's death from metastatic colon cancer to find out how many people, women particularly, in my family who'd had or died from colon cancer!). I'll be doing my research and reading you for as much insight/information as I can get! I don't see them regularly as I live in TX and they don't travel often but, I want to be aware of, and ready to properly engage when we do see each other.
