Shock, fear, and frustration prevailed--that is until displaced by acceptance, faith, and love. Autism Is a Four-Letter Word: Love is the story of that journey. The story is poignant: Some of the antics are humorous; others depict day-to-day living at home and at school. Overall, the message of Autism Is a Four-Letter Word ... is a cry for help--help from local, state, and federal jurisdictions, from politicians, from lobbyists to fund the research and facilities that will keep our autistic children safe, that will provide early education to teach self care, social, and communication skills. If you have a child with autism, this book is a must-read. Autism Is a Four-Letter Word ... is a book of comfort and support for other families of autistic and special-needs children. It will make you laugh; it will make you cry; and it may make your blood pressure spike. Julie Jurgens-Shimek gives voice to families of autistics who feel they are alone, to let them know they are not. She is eager to share her experiences, to lend courage to any who are affected, and to develop a unified cry from all in the bewildering world of autism. Autism Is a Four-Letter Word ... is a powerful account of the progress that is possible, that against formidable challenges, the Shimeks have learned how best to play the hand. When love prevails, Michael thrives as his journey continues."--
