Temple Grandin

I watched this lecture today and was totally blown away.  It reminded me of the book review I wrote for my last internship.  For me, Dr. Grandin is the definition of “differently abled.”  I truly hope you’ll be impressed as I when I watched this video.

Ido in Autismland

Today, as I began to do some preliminary research on the book Ido in Autismland, my first assignment for United Cerebral Palsy this summer, the universal truth struck me again that our inner being comes from the same vein.  Although I knew this concept, wading through the research today only reinforced the fact.  It is pertinent not to judge someone outwardly, as many are apt to do.  Even without reading the entire book, I have the sense that I’m in for a treat.  Indeed, I’m looking forward to reading this heartwarming story!
