Thank you so much for posting these links. It’s stories like these that give me great hope for my 17 yo autistic daughter, intellectually gifted but very quirky and socially inept. I often worry about how she’ll manage when she goes off to college this fall, but she is one of the most positive and determined people I know, in addition to being really smart. She’s come so far since she was diagnosed at 2 and I thought she’d never even be able to manage kindergarten. She continues to amaze me every single day and even though I still have doubts about how things will turn out for her, I have tried to adopt her positive outlook on life and hope she achieves everything she wants to.
