As I further my research on autism I came across an article from a woman named Laura Shumaker, author/speaker/consultant. I clicked the link to her blog and found some unbelievable information regarding her and her son who is 26 with autism as well as an insight into her life. I feel like many parents go through many of the same feelings, emotional rollercoaster, daily doubts that Laura Shumaker goes through and has gone through. Take a look at her personal website that I was able to really get a better understanding into her daily life.

Liz, I enjoyed reading her blog. It helped me give a better insight of how parents feel on every level. She really opens up and shares their life with the world. I think in some ways, this helps people cope with certain things.
ReplyDeleteI was on Pinterest earlier today trying to see if I could find anything to help me with my blog, because Pinterest seems to literally have it ALL. Anyways, I typed in "helping with autism" and a TON of stuff came up. Things came up for teachers, parents, families, friends. I think this may help with your research as well!
and by "give a better insight" I mean, "Get a better insight" :)
