“While raising autistic children presents many unique challenges, it’s nowhere near as devastating as autism fundraising collaterals often make it out to be.”

What a great statement. My adult niece was diagnosed with autism at the age of 6, but she is quite high functioning. She has grown into a beautiful young woman and is not what some would stereotypically want you to think.

My daughter Amaya also has “Autism” and sensory issues. My wife and I caught it early and Amaya has come a long way in less than a year’s time. The one thing that we learned, that most of the medical field never mentions, is that most of these children are normal and just have viral and/or fungal issues going on in their brains. These can be treated and your child can live a normal life again. I encourage you to read some of the material on a new website I put together (still in the works): http://www.not-autism.org

I think this information could be very helpful for you. As parents we have to rise up above the current medical system and do what is right for our children as the current system is dismissing our precious children.
