Autism Answers: Life Lessons Learned

By Deborah Dennis

It’s hard to believe that we’re on the second half of 2012. There are days that seem to last forever, then sometimes you blink and a few months go by. Or is it just me? The new school year is just around the corner. Moms rejoice while children grieve. Let’s not forget as parents that there is one final battle left before victory: Orientation. That word is like ice water in the veins of everyone who has to endure it: New teachers, new schools. The nightmare of a trip looking for every last item on the supplies list. I think my heart just skipped a beat.
