Elmo with Julia

Thank you, Sesame Street, for continuing to
Both of these young women are extraordinary! Thank you for shedding some light on ASD and how it affects different people, well… differently. It is so true the saying “if you’ve met one person with autism, you have met one person with autism.” It is a broad spectrum indeed. Bless you!
Way to go Hannah

Great stories. My son was diagnosed at age 36 with Asperger’s which is no longer a stand alone diagnosis. It now falls under the spectrum of Autism, although the higher functioning end of the spectrum. In retrospect, I can now see that some of the traits I thought were shyness were likely indicators of his condition. Back in the 80’s, there was not a lot of information about Asperger’s. Even today, it is hard to find info about adult Asperger’s.
