I would also buy such a video. It's time for the world

to see the beautiful side of autism, not just the ugly

side. There are so many aspects that are oh so

beautiful, like perseverence, loyalty, being able to

be SO EXCITED about things...

There are 4 or 5 autistic gymnasts at my gym

and...just....how excited the kids get about getting a

new skill vs. how happy the NT kids get, it's like

1000 times more excited. Makes me glad to be autistic,

every day.

I have no idea how I would go about this--yet--but I too really feel with

all my heart this side of the story needs to be told! Maybe together we can

think of ideas and make this dream come true.

Autism isnt a negative word! My daughter has so much to offer the world,

and has already changed the lives of so many with her love. If she even

misses a day of school her teachers send home notes saying how much they

missed her in class and how much she brightens their day.

I have no idea how I would go about this--yet--but I too really feel with

all my heart this side of the story needs to be told! Maybe together we can

think of ideas and make this dream come true.

Autism isnt a negative word! My daughter has so much to offer the world,

and has already changed the lives of so many with her love. If she even

misses a day of school her teachers send home notes saying how much they

missed her in class and how much she brightens their day.

You are aware that AIDS and cancer kill people, right?

Right?

And that, like, more people get them, regardless.

Especially cancer, because it can't be prevented like

AIDS can.

And, um, they're FATAL DISEASES.

Autism isn't. The only way people die of autism is if

people kill us for the audacity to be ourselves.

Therefore, the comparison isn't remotely apt. At all.

And I KNOW I am not the only person sick of the

autism/cancer thing because it's like apples and

carpet.

See www.rettdevil.com/katiemccarron.html please. And

www.thiswayoflife.org/murderofautistics or something

along those lines. Note that the former is the only

memorial I had the info to do, and the latter-the man

who maintains it can only add the people who hit the

news.

Hi everyone...I rarely post but I do read here and there when I can. I have

a 10 year old beautiful daughter who is autistic. She also has cerebral

palsey and mental retardation. I wanted to throw in my two cents as well and

say

that no two situations are the same. My experience with autism is that there

are good days and bad. My daughter is full of energy, and such a happy and

loving little girl! But on the flip side she can get very aggresive, can throw

a

full blown violent fit and can paint up a room in mere seconds in feces!

Two people can be put into the same situation in life and have two totaly

different takes on it. I personnal wish that my daughter never had autism. I

say this because I have seen her without having it and she was a totally

different person who loved to be around her family.....now she seeks isolation

and we

fight to enter her world. Her sisters and relatives that are her age miss

her friendship so much. It is very different now....and again this is MY

opinion on MY situation. It is also what I see in terms of our family. When we

watch home movies my older daughters always say they miss the way Destiney was.

I do explain and point out her current good qualities and I help them to see

how they can try to interact with her on her level and how to try to get into

her world. It works sometimes and then other times Destiney just wont allow

them in.

There are so many levels of autism in this world and my daughter Destiney

happens to be a lower functioning autistic little girl, she does not speak and

is

still in diapers as well. Before she turned three years old she was talking

and interacting and functioning just as the other girls. So you see there are

just so many different situations and to say that one person is wrong in

their opinion and another is right is just not correct. No one has walked in

the

other persons shoes and no one has the right to say another is wrong. We all

hold our own opinions and thats the way God created us....to think for

ourselves and form our own opinions.

So we as parents of autistic children or as individuals with autism should be

sharing our experiences and learning from eachother.....isnt that what this

group was intended for? I myself gain insight from this group that I could not

get elsewhere. If you dont agree with a person, then nicely say how you

feel....theres no need to shout back...we are all adults here. My daughter,

like

I said earlier, does not speak so I am grateful for this group. I especially

would like to thank Sondra for all of her insight that she has shared with

us....you are truely a remarkable person.

Cant we just all get along?

Blessings

Mom to four beautiful children:)

I dont agree....but to each his own. I merely was stateing that there is no

need to shout on this group....If you feel you need to shout to get your

opinion across, then do so...you have every right...its just MY opinion.

Here! Hear!!

Re: Oprah Message Board-PLEASE WRITE THEM!

My point was that I don't think there can ever be too much

awareness. As for the cancer comparison, don't lecture me about it

killing. I know, my mother died from it a little over a year ago.

For you, there may be enough awareness because obviously you are able

to communicate and live a fulfilling life. I have a child who still

wears diapers and has never said a word, so I'm sorry but until she

has a chance at a somewhat normal and productive life I will fight

for more funding and more awareness. Comparing yourself to other

people with autism is like comparing apples to carpet. They're all

totally different. I'm only addressing the awareness, not anything

else.
