OMFG, you have to see this.

[Fishy!]

Okay... if any of you know someone who has an autistic child/sibling or family member... or if you have ever seen someone who is autistic, you should watch this, this Video is of an amazing autistic teenager... and I cannot begin to express how astounded I am by this... it was on 2020 I believe so some of you may have seen it already [and I did post it on my face book page if anyone saw it there]... its a bit long, but so incrediably worth it to see something like this.

Thank You Mistress.  I had just finished watching HBO's movie on Dr. Temple Grandin, who I'd heard and read about before, when You posted this clip.  Her story is incredible, like this young woman's.  Both were very blessed to have parents who refused to give up on them, who could see the innate intelligence in their eyes, and who persevered in spite of what doctors told them.

Thank you for sharing. That was a very heart warming story and hits close to home for me. I have a 12 year old newphew that is autistic. If you get the chance to see the movie "Miracle Run" you should.  It is about the tireless efforts of a mother who fights to guarantee an education for her autistic twins. She refuses to give up on their potential, even though it seems that the rest of the world has turned its back on them. Thanks to this incredible mother's support, her boys accomplish the unimaginable.
