I've been thinking about what to do for Autism Awareness Day (April 2). My son doesn't have autism, but he's not "neurotypical", so it's a sensitive subject. I've decided to just link to Corinne Duyvis's post and let her speak.
I went through and read all of her posts on autism. Awesome. Thank you. My son's pre-school teacher is convinced he has autism. The more I read about it, the more I"m convinced that he doesn't, but is still somewhere on the fringes, and has something going on.
Thank you for posting a comment! I know that sounds a little needy, and maybe it is. I mean, I don't need comment validation to know that I exist, right? But I like to know that someone else (maybe you?) has read what I wrote and felt moved enough to reply. So, thank you.

Anyway, what a cool lady she is.
So, thanks for linking over.
Oh Jolene, I have an idea about how hard this must be for you.
ReplyDeleteI didn't get my son diagnosed until he was in second grade. By that time he hated himself and his problems so much, he told me he wished he were dead.
I hope you're able to get help and a diagnosis soon!
