This is part of a statement made by relatives at the funeral of the family (including 2 children with autism) who all died in an apparent murder/suicide.
"Whilst science works day after day to comprehend all these different conditions, society cannot remain indifferent to the situations families bear, and needs to move and develop means to support them better."
This is so sad ... yet I can easily understand the feelings which would have driven the parents to this point. The hard thing is to wonder why this event is not more common. Life can be so hard where autism is a factor.
Enough of the serious talk!! I've just had an email from Chris ..... (Nov 13 to April 14). He says that a further internship in Perth is possible as part of his study ..... This would be AWESOME if it were to happen.
We weighed Kaylia yesterday ..... she has lost a lot of weight since we stopped Risperdal. Its very good. She is looking much more healthy.
6:30pm she's in the bath .... very happy. Singing away.
