If you haven’t found Motherlode (the New York Times) do read it now…you may cry. The writing is beautiful and the topic is emotionally moving…Just go read it now. Lisa Belkin can write.

Thanks so much. But I can’t take credit for that particular piece of writing. I just introduced it. The author is Liane Kupferberg Carter who is one of the best voices out there on the subject of raising a child with autism.
Thank you so much for the correction – Liane Kupferberg Carter wrote that piece and it is lovely. Earlier comment stands – You still can write.
