Aspergers...What A Roller Coaster Ride!

On Aug 28th I posted the following on Facebook"Kassidy is having a REALLY hard time with school this year. I wish people would understand that she is NOT like other 11 year olds. She is a SPECIAL NEEDS child which means she had needs that are different from the rest. Why is that so hard to understand?"

Then today I posted this on Facebook: Well, things can change so fast. I was worried about the school not "getting" Kassidy and then I received the following email from her science teacher:

"I wanted to tell you that yesterday in Science, Kassidy approached me and said she needed to leave 5 minutes early to use the bathroom. She also participated in class and was the voice for her table group to share out when another student at her table needed help. "

WOW!

And then today she was playing a new game she got for WII and Shane was watching her, sitting next to her with his head leaning on her shoulder while she was explaining to him how to play and she was letting him do it.

Double WOW!

Only those that have autism touching their lives will understand just how fricking amazing this is!!!!
