I thought of you when I saw this because I know how you feel about the campaigns for a cure. From a parent’s point of view it didn’t even occur to me that everyone wouldn’t be for a cure until I met adults like you who have Autism who frankly don’t want to be cured. You made me think about this from a different perspective. What’s even more interesting is that you are both someone who has Autism and a parent of a child on the spectrum. That’s a perspective you rarely get to see.

I want to thank you for giving me a peek into your world and want you to know that I’m very thankful to have met you. You’ve given me a better understanding about what Iain thinks and feels. But even if that weren’t the case, you’re a great person to know because you’re smart and funny as hell. You also have a big heart and with your love Hello Kitty, you’re just plain cool.
