Girl's inspirational story gives insight into Autism

My friend Sandra shared this amazing story on Facebook.

It charts how a girl with Autism at 11 suddenly started to communicate with her parents by typing on her computer.

She's provided amazing insights as to how autism feels on the inside.

The love for her and belief in her of her parents is unconditional and so strong. They've also been able to provide her with intensive therapy from a very young age.

How many autistic kids in this country can get therapy like that, though? Parents can struggle to get even a basic education that meets their needs. This should make us think again.

Thanks for your comment. As long as it doesn't libel anyone, and isn't abusive, I'll publish it. I try to respond to as many as I can, but please forgive me if I don't. Sometimes there are just not enough hours in the day. I read and appreciate every one, even those specifically aimed at winding me up.
