Reading Katie's father's press release and now reading your post brings up the tears,- and sends me to the other room to hug my (Asperger's, blind) teenager -- that is, if he lets me. :) He's still a teenager, after all.Daisyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11647906900944224234noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5821799658844915805.post-40698532450819732912008-01-19T05:26:00.000+00:002008-01-19T05:26:00.000+00:00Beautifully said!

Is something I wish more doctors and parents did. But it is also something that eats away at me every day in the choices I make. I spoke with a mom clawing at the doors to have her child participate in the human trials of something for Fragile X, and she was flabergasted by my opinions. I brought up how there are people who want to use stem cells to grow corpus collosums to fix their kids (with structural differences like my son's),a nd how that disturbed me. And she couldn't believe I wouldn't choose to do that if I had the option. When I explained some of the potential consequences (if it were even possible), and what that meant to me, her husband at least said "Huh, I see what you mean."Angehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00391321273245313098noreply@blogger.com
