The programme finished and I am still sitting here with leaking eyes...can't believe I have become so emotional over it all.
Everyone should be so proud of their involvement in this.We made it! All three boys have graduated, it's been hard work but it shows there is a possibility of a chance of normal (ish) life after a diagnosis (or two) of ASD. It's not been the easiest route but I am so glad I ignored everything and everyone and did my own therapies with them.

I cried and cried through this.
What I love most is the hope it gives. I remember how low you were at the beginning Mike and look how things have turned out. It just goes to show there are good and kind people in the world. :A:TTrying to spend less time on MSE so I can get more done ... it's not going great so far!
Sorry if I don't reply to posts - I'm having MAJOR trouble keeping up these days!

Fab programme, fab house! What a joy to see such a nightmare transformed by the good efforts of so many people.
So pleased for you and your lovely sons Mike. Now the prog's finished I need to go find a hankie or three!
All the best for a healthy and happy 2011,
