thanks so much for sharing that father's story

FB: i think the "fix" part was more referring to his daughter's understanding. that this may of been the way she expressed it. no doubt she can see the toll it has on her family, and it is a battle for her to understand her autism and how it (doesnt) work in our society. i am sure her wish to be 'fixed' is only and truly to be able to participate fully in our life society. as it stands, there just aint room for them as there is not adequate support or understandings in place to allow them to live a full life.

at least, that's what i got from it (i was thinking that one of the cards he wrote at the end was that he wants to keep a promise to his daughter...).
