Jeremy















Jeremy is a fascinating man. I enjoyed visiting him and his mother Robin. They have gone through several battles in their lives. Robin is a single parent. While Robin struggles with the daily challenges of being a single parent, she has more challenges with a son who has autism. However, she says with the added struggles come added joys.
It isn't obvious to a stranger Jeremy has autism. There is so much more to him than his autism. He is extremely bright. He takes apart computers and fixes them! I could never do such a thing!

One of the most interesting parts of the interview was when I asked Jeremy what he thought about people treating and trying to recover from autism. He doesn't agree with it. He calls it ignorance and a life long disorder. I can't wait to tell you the rest of his story!
