Click to help Autism Speaks

I received this today:

Please everyone click on the site, you will be touched forever then forward it on.

Watch THIS video clip...click HERE

The band, Five for Fighting, is generously donating $0.49 to AutismSpeaks for *each time* the video is viewed. The funding goes toward research studies to help find a cure. When you have a moment, please visit the link to watch the video and feel free to link to me, or copy/paste and pass it along to your friends and family. They are aiming for 10,000 hits, but hopefully we can help them to surpass this goal.

1 in 150 children have Autism. If you think it doesn't touch your life, you're wrong. By reading this blog, and knowing me, you know someone who loves a beautiful little girl with Autism. By knowing me, you're separated from knowing someone who has Autism by 'one degree'.

This is something that affects all of us. Please, if nothing else, watch the video and learn some new facts.

Thanks, and warmest regards.

Very powerful video. I just assumed insurance would cover the cost of therapy. What's wrong with insurance companies? My goodness, is there someone we could write too..a petition to sign...anyhting?

The insurance company said, the chicken crossed the road because he was afraid to foot the bill!

Yes.

You can write to our local representatives. Many of us have. The more letters, the more support for our cause.

Thanks for taking the time to look at the link and respond. It means a lot to me. :)
