It reminds me to appreciate little things and gives me more of an appreciation of what parents of autistic children must go through.Jane Annehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10080114435686228615noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3920171049284403071.post-60255564503047728272009-07-28T15:44:08.991-04:002009-07-28T15:44:08.991-04:00What an awesome sweet story.

I grew up in the 60s going to church with a family with an autistic child. He was about my age, and it was hard for me to understand why he was so "different". There wasn't as much talking about things back then. My mom told me (sometime in past couple of years) that the doctors really, really urged the parents to institutionalize the boy, but they refused. I'm so glad, for him AND for them, that they did. He had such a bond, especially with his mom. Thanks for giving a glimpse into your world...Pam Dhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15681029046120784248noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3920171049284403071.post-73640323145495967732009-07-28T08:58:28.125-04:002009-07-28T08:58:28.125-04:00They truly are amazing children.

Her mom works tirelessly with her, and every little thing Madison accomplishes is so BIG. Maddie will climb into her mom's arms now and rub the side of her cheek. It's beautiful to watch, especially knowing how long my friend has waited for that. Thanks for sharing. :)Brandihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10552493178085989449noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3920171049284403071.post-21097347090682800302009-07-28T08:44:50.968-04:002009-07-28T08:44:50.968-04:00This was sweet.

I guess that can be part of it, but it's such a poor description because whether there is speech or not, Autism is so much more than that. I love how you see the beautiful and good things in people. =)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3920171049284403071.post-55659050634396750372009-07-28T08:42:31.521-04:002009-07-28T08:42:31.521-04:00Oh K!

I love how you shared with true care and appreciation.<br /><br />I am grateful that you have shared R with us - it has helped me appreciate the different ways that our families show us love - and how infinitely special each one of us is.<br /><br />Thank you again - this touched me deeply.Rachelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12112453369738198010noreply@blogger.com
