Reposted from a 2006 (?) article. In our search for information on autism, (see Krissy’s Story) we have discovered a few websites that have been very helpful for us and we are eager to share them with you. While we do not agree with everything said on any one of these sites, we hope that [...]
Krissy is the daughter of dear friends of ours and was diagnosed with autism at age 2.
