Autism Awareness Day

Today is WORLD Autism Awareness Day! Although, for far too many families EVERY DAY is Autism Awareness Day! It's late and I am EXTREMELY exhausted so I am just gonna leave you with a few links to check out!!
Autism is on the RISE!! Check out this link HERE

For AZ stats go HERE

It really is ridiculous why the numbers keep getting higher and higher!! Just four years ago when our children (well, Tyla and Jack) were diagnosed it was 1 out of 150 kids were being diagnosed!! Now it's 1 out of 88?! And that's the NATIONAL average?! RI-DICULOUS!!!

Oh and don't even get me started on Autism Speaks! Such a corrupt organization! My friend Jess posted a link to a blog that explains WHY most of us IN the autism community DON'T like them!! It's a very good read!! Go HERE.

I HATE to say we "Celebrate" Autism Awareness Day" but I enjoy having a day devoted to spreading awareness! And for HEAVEN'S SAKES can we cut out the bull c**p and admit that there is "something" in those vaccines among a million other things that CAN trigger this DISORDER! I also HATE when people call it a disease! You can't "catch" it, it can't be treated "medically" (all though BIO-MEDICAL treatments have done WONDERS!!!!!)

ANYWAY, I am so tired I can barely keep my eyes open so, I'll type more later!
