A thought for the season:

" The only true gift is a portion of thyself. " –Ralph

Waldo Emerson

1. Streaming video presentation: " How Autism Impacts a

Family " From talkAutism.

Dr. Naseef gives a heart-warming overview of the

traumatic stress parents of children with autism go

through, and the positive potential rewards the experience

can bring. Running time is 16 minutes. To view go to:

2. Stressed Over Holiday Shopping

" This brings us to an important lesson that all children

can teach us in this current season for giving. More than

the new toys, it is their parents' time and attention that

is so exciting and wonderful for children. Continued at

Dear Family and Friends:

I understand that we will be visiting each other for the

holidays this year! Sometimes these visits can be very

hard for me, but here is some information that might help

our visit to be more successful. As you probably know, I am

challenged by a hidden disability called autism or what

some people refer to as a Pervasive Developmental

Disorder (PDD.) Autism/PDD is a neuro-developmental

disorder that makes it hard for me to understand the

environment around me. I have barriers in my brain that you

can't see but which make it difficult for me to adapt to my

surroundings. Continued at

If you think thus information may be of use to someone you

know, please forward them this e-mail or direct them to

www.specialfamilies.com

Best regards during this holiday season in the spirit of

peace for our whole human family.

Naseef
