Week 5

I have been getting loads of information about my topic, autism. I'm almost done with my first book "Look me in The Eye," and I love it so much. The book is loaded with information about asperger's which is tied up with Autism. John Elder Robison the author of the book is an aspergian, so reading a book that comes from someone that is diagnosed with Asperger's is really helpful. Reading about his life with asperger’s helps me have an image of what it’s like to live with asperger’s, and I can say that it’s not that easy. John is smart but he doesn’t have the social skills to work with people, like in a work or at school. He also talks about how he struggles to maintain conversations with people. I also got to interview Stephanie one of our staff here in HTHI that takes care of Anthony who has autism. The interview was really interesting she packed my head with more information about Autism. She talked to me about what it’s like to work with Anthony. Stephanie Lytle told me that it would be interesting to interview Anthony himself, and I’m really looking forward to do that.
