On Monday 1-29-07 The View is having a show just on Autism.
It will feature Toni Braxton who's 3yr old son was just Dx'ed this year w/autism.

Set your DVR, TIVO or just watch it

Thanks! I hit record on my DVR and I'm watching bits and pieces as I can. Thanks again for the tip. :)

I'm currently watching it, and am a little annoyed. Perhaps it's just Rosie. No, it's not a political thing...I just CAN'T STAND HER VOICE! I know they're trying to provide "hope" - but they seem to be so focused on "recovery". They had a little boy on who had "recovered" now they're referring to Temple Grandin as "recovered". (Okay, she may function better than she did as a child, but she is in noooo way cured. Just watching her and you can see how socially awkward she is.)

I don't know...maybe I've just been doing this for so long that my once open mind is damaged beyond hope. We're just trying to get through one day at a time, and no doubt, somebody will call me this afternoon and say, "Hey! I was watching The View this morning, and I think you need to get Claire some of that ABA therapy so she can be cured!" Of course, we have exactly ZERO qualified ABA therapists in this area, and Claire is on the cusp of being too old to even try...but hey...sure, I'll get her some ABA, no problem. Just as soon as I figure out how to get that 70K a year to pay for it.

Ugh. The best of intentions can really irritate me!
