From the Editor: Making waves

David Kirby's next book, "Death at Sea World," isn't out till July but already there are two petitions against it. You know, don't buy it, don't read it, don't believe it. Kinda familiar, eh?

..."but one of those ones that makes you stronger, and always ready to help someone else (or just send sympathetic vibes) when one sees another child having a similar moment."

There is nothing more empowering than knowing that you have done all that you possibly could to improve and enrich the quality of life of the child that has been entrusted in your care. The foremost priority of any mother is to make sure that she has not left any stone unturned in getting to that objective. Especially now, when there is so much out there available by way of treatment to get your child to a better place.

PS: I just realized how pre-written this saga is - even the Editor's name is DAN (Defeat Autism Now)! This just keeps getting better and better :).

It was a tough moment-----the grocery store incident referred to that I wrote about----but one of those ones that makes you stronger, and always ready to help someone else (or just send sympathetic vibes) when one sees another child having a similar moment.

He sure did. I've enjoyed every chapter in the book. In my novel, I talk about the "look" in the grocery store, Kristina. We've all gotten it, haven't we? I'm darn good at shooting it RIGHT back.

Robert Parish did a fine job of bringing together some different voices. Thank you for reading!

This looks like a wonderful book full of great writers. Can't wait to read it. Isn't it sad that this Autismville person keeps seeming to believe that advocacy for our children equates to "bitterness" and "hate?" There is such ignorance out there.

I’m looking forward to reading the book … Think I’ll just skip the Stagliano portion. She’s funny .. but the hate and bitterness she projects just make me sad. :(

I just received a copy of this last week. It's next in line to read - and I can't wait!
