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?

I wrote this Huffington Post piece titled, "Jim Carrey: Autism Made Me a Man" for autism fathers everywhere. And for men like David Kirby and Dan Olmsted who fight so hard for our kids, even though they themselves to not have children on the spectrum.
I'd appreciate your comments over at HuffPo, even though it's sometimes a pain in the neck to post over there.
Thank you. CLICK HERE PLEASE.

Hi Kim - thank you for honoring all the dad's and grandpa's too! I couldn't register or log on at Huffington (I'm fairly certain I'm already registered) - but wanted to let you know we loved it!

I, too, can't seem to log in at HuffPo.
But, if I could, I'd just say thanks for that.

That was beautiful Kim. Thanks for taking time to acknowledge the dads. They play a crucial role in recovering these children.
I'm grateful for my husband's confidence in me and the sacrifices he's made for our family. He always talks about how much I've done for our son, but doesn't realize he's the real hero.

My sons and I have been blessed with a father/husband we can look up to and be proud of. Our boys have a stellar role model in their lives, and I hope they grow up to be just like him.

Here's to my hubby who reversed roles with me, gave up two summers of pay to spend 160 hours in a Hyperbaric Oxygen Chamber in the mountains of NC. Who lived in a trailor, cooked SCD and did ABA for both my kids. You're the man!

Kim,
I'm still trying to "log in" on Huffington........
and I know I'm registered ...in fact after all these years, I'm registered
on every paper in U.S.
Anyway, I second your words. Congratulations to all the dads in the battle
against autism. It's an uphill fight. You were dealt an unfair hand in the game of
life. Fatherhood is demanding for anyone, and no outsider can image what it asks of
fathers with an affected child.
The hardest thing is to have this disaster continue to be explained away and ignored, but
times are changing. Coverage is including more and more parents saying the same thing:
Our children weren't meant to be like this.
We need to tell the truth.
We're never going away.
All the dads in this struggle will be recognized for the heroes that they are.
