I read both of Jenny McCarthy’s books and I’m very greatful for having the chance to read them. They made me feel like i’m not alone in the world and also made me sad. But these books are empowering. I think there is something to be said for a generation of women who fight the system to save their kids. I’m fists up to the belief that she is correct that this generation of mothers will pave the way for other moms. I’m working each day trying not to drive myself nuts but its not always easy. I want him to have a good day and sometimes it just hurts my heart. I would really suggest reading these books, its a great insight into the world of Autism from the biomed parents perspective. I know not all ASD parents are biomed but I think its worth reading about other parents struggles because it can help you clarify your own sometimes. Also I think its good to be informed. I wasn’t a biomed mom and now I am, I think you have to walk a lifetime in someones shoes to try and understand why they do things but I’m really not a judgemental mom either way. I hope this blog just helps others out and maybe me in the process…
