Re: [AS-and-Proud-of-it] Lost Another Ex-Girlfriend

Hello all!

My local newspaper, Saint Louis Post-Dispatch, has a
feature article in the Sunday Everyday section about
aytistic children becoming adults.

You can access the URL below to read the article, and
see the photos that go along with it. Photos are
removed in a few days. Now to read the article:

Also in Sunday's paper here, The parade section has
info about the daughter of Burt Baccarach comming
suicide at age 40. She had AS according to parade.

That is all from me here. I am babysitting my
granddaughter, and we are having a blast!

Best to all!!!!
