New Insight

I am so excited about a new source of information about autism. My sister and brother-in-law saw an HBO movie called "Temple Grandin". It is a true story about a woman with autism and how she grew to become a world renowned designer of livestock handling equipment. She has written many books and gives lectures from the unique perspective of a person with autism. I went to a web site about an upcoming conference on autism and from there to a site where I purchased a lecture on DVD and several of her books. I can see already that this is going to be a wonderful source of information for us as parents, for Lonnie's teachers, and for our family.
