GIFTED

AutismHWY is blessed to know so many amazing Autistic activists and advocates. This has been THE biggest and best result of our 5 year history. Our GIFT.

5 Things “Autism Moms” Aut to Know

November 26th, 2015|

Where is the Acceptance HWY? Before we get to this list I would like to say I never got the memo telling me to dub myself an "Autism Mom." It never occurred to me that I was one. When I came on-line 5 yrs. ago I realized it was a thing people do or

Careful Road Work Ahead,   Paradigm Shifting,   Buckle Your Seat Belts,   Unexplored Terrain Ahead,   Road-Rules; to be determined...   Hopefully, soon!

When you have subsets of people viewing the exact same concept (or group of words) in differing fashions so much gets lost in the literal and figurative translations...   Natural things have a way of being.

Super Autistic

August 6th, 2015|

My son is " super Autistic." I actually love the sound of that! Super Autistic! Like a comic book character leaping problematic sensory situations while absorbing a chaotic planet daily.   In all reality that is what he does. What many, many Autistic people do to the consternation of others globally. In 2015 he still lives in a world

Cover Us?

July 17th, 2015|

Part of the Why I #BoycottAutismSpeaks Flashblog.           Living in a constantly upgrading world, all families want to feel they are "covered."
