here is how it went down �”
my 3.5 yr old daughter dakota
was diagnosed in september
with HFA – high functioning autism
i have been immersed in that world/reality since
learning – reading – asking questions
it’s all autism – all the time
for the newly diagnosed
as we try to grab onto
anything to keep us standing
the knowledge we r not alone
there r others living this too
when i saw the anti bullying video
that mentioned barron
it spoke to the symptoms many ASD kids have
it was educational and informational
these symptoms so many do not understand
�” i thought – how amazing IF
IF
it is true
IF it is true – i tweeted from my heart
it would help so much with the autism epidemic
1 in 55 kids is an epidemic
donald and i agree on that
and not much else
i feel he is a clear and present danger
but this autism subject �”
had nothing to do with donald
though i admit
he does trigger me in all ways �”
i have no ill will for his children �”
or any children �”
and if u knew anything about me �”
u would know that
donald does not have the power
to change the facts
to re write history
so speak true – stand tall
THE WORLD IS WATCHING
for those who felt me a horror
what can i say
humans we
try r very best and fail often
peace out
as we try to save democracy
from this madman
who thinks OUR country is his
