World Autism Day

Today, I’m wearing blue as  people around the world are observing World Autism Day.  My son has a form of autism, Asperger’s Syndrome. Autism now affects 1 in every 70 boys.  Frankly, it’s an epidemic and numbers are growing. Check the Autism Speaks website for more info.

CNN has a story today on the latest autism research. Be informed on a condition that may not affect you but will likely affect someone you know. If not now, probably very soon.

    Thanks for the great Easter sermon too!
