On the link below, Carly Fleischmann answers different questions about herself and autism in general...

Some of my favorites:
Q: If you could go on a date with anyone who would it be? Why? Where would you want to go?
A: Brad Pitt. Why are you silly? He is very very hot. Even Barbara Walters agreed with me. I’d like to go to a restaurant. It’s easier for me because most restaurants are loud and no one would look at me funny there.

Q: What do you dream about? (besides Brad Pitt)
--------------
Q: Can you describe how you feel inside? Do you think this is different from kids who don’t have autism?
A: The problem is I don’t know what other kids without autism are feeling. I have fights with myself every day. Right when I wake up to when I go to sleep. I can’t even go in the washroom without telling myself not to pick up the soap and smell it or fight with myself not to empty all the shampoo bottles.

ReplyDeleteThis article talks about the "caregiver" of autistic children. As one of Bolt's caregivers, I think you would like this. I'm also posting it on Jimmy and Emily's blogs
