Well, Sir, I'm reading a great book now!. It's called "Steering by Starlight"!. It's by Martha Beck, and I found her by accident when I took my husband to the Opthamologist!. She talks about how her youngest son, Adam, was diagnosed with Autism, and the great mistake she made misunderstanding his diability!. It's Chapter 7, BTW!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

The way I think about my body in general,when I doubt myself and cause myself to mess up even though I had it right the first time!.
