Anne we met at Kathy’s book launch and I had no idea you have a son on the spectrum. I am the one with 6 children, 2 who have aspergers. I can totally relate to what you have been through as it took over 8 years to have my oldest diagnosed, even though I had been taking him to specialists beginning when he was 18 months. 8 years of hell that I refused to have my younger son endure. Thank goodness I already had my eldest diagnosed because it made it that much easier to have my younger son looked at and given a diagnosis.
You are an amazing woman and I can only iomagine how much more difficult it must have been for you given your profession, and how others must have behaved differently because of it.
I can’t wait to go buy the book and read these wonderful stories. Thank you for sharing.
Chantel

Lesley Quinn’s writing is so beautiful–thank you, thank you, Lesley, for this poignant, moving and somehow also humorous story. I also loved reading the follow-up.

I feel humbled and grateful to the essayists brave enough to tell the stories that those of us with “supple spines” need to hear. Thank you–all of you–for refusing to gild the truth, for maintaining your sense of decency as well as your sense of humor, for sharing honestly the gritty day-to-day realities of this world-within-our-world.
