I write a blog called, Change The World; Write A Song. I often write about my son who has Asperger’s Syndrome. He is 17 years old and a singer/songwriter. Music has been a tool he uses to understand himself and others better. If this sounds like something you are interested in subscribing to; go here http://jenadouglas.wordpress.com/2011/03/25/autism-sings/
I built a page and copied the link given, and it says that there is no security clearance for the page. I’ve tried to different computers, and the link will not pop up. How are people supposed to donate on my team, if they can’t view my son’s web page I built through you guys?
Please respond.
My son, TJ with Aspergers, 13yrs old, is doing awesome and through music, religion and yoga has helped him cope through life daily challenges. He sings and plays piano and makes his own music too. I count my blessings everyday for such a beautiful and talented young man he is becoming ;-) Love, Mommy and his best advocate too! Light up Blue!!!
To all those affected by a loved on with Autism. I would love to share a product that is making a huge difference for people
Please contact me we have a product that there is much testamony of what it is doing.
God Bless Maggie
Hi Maggie,
Yes, there are some wonderful products on the market that can help. Thank you! My husband and I started our beautiful 9 year old son who is challenged with Autism on a nutritional supplement 115 days ago that has worked wonders … noticed by family, friends, teachers and doctors … one missing piece of the puzzle at a time.
God Bless,
Stephanie
