I'm was happy to celebrate
I'm was happy to celebrate World Autism Day yesterday, as I know many beautiful faces and personalities on the spectrum. The UN has only declared April 2nd as World Autism Day for only 366 days, and i appreciate that there is a day to honor indivduals who own autism and the advocacy work being done.
CNN journailst Miriam Falco wrote a great piece' Progress is Slow in the War Against Autism' outlining the progress of Autism combined with some medical information and families sharing their story.
