My beautiful daughter Darian has severe Autism. She is 8 years old and has been through hell and back. When she was 5 she got kicked in the stomach twice while on the floor, got her hair pulled, swung across the room and this is just what was reported. All this and probably more by her own teacher. This forced the school district to place her in the right school. It was a blessing in disguise...at least I want to believe that. I now help parents get appropriate services for their children.

Story of Luke...
I am so excited and looking forward in seeing The Story of Luke https://www.youtube.com/embed/zm7qif_naDg. It will be interesting to see this movie and also have the open forum to talk to the director after the showing. I was thinking about it all weekend as I watched Darian do her thing. I had a nice time observing her and wondering what will become of her. It's a scary thought and sometimes I almost have a panic attack thinking about her, but I can't let it get to me. It is what it is and if she ends up with mommy and daddy for the rest of our lives, so be it. I'm ready. She is the most interesting human being I have ever met, I know she came out of my body, but seeing her in action and wondering what goes through that beautiful head of hers, blows me away! Everything she's been through, thank God, she has no memory of it. I can't imagine what she felt when she was being hit by her teacher, the person she probably thought she could trust...I better stop!!! That part of her life is so completely outrageous, I can't go there right now. It drives me insane with anger! Can't go there, not today...Looking forward to The Story of Luke, should be great!
