Autism Day


HEAVENS VERY SPECIAL CHILD
A meeting was held, quite far from Earth!
It's time again, for another birth.
Said the Angels, to the Lord above,
This special child will need much love.
His progress may be very slow,
Accomplishments he may not show.
And he'll require extra care
From the folks he meets down there.
He may not run or laugh or play,
His thoughts may seem, quite far away,
In many ways he won't adapt,
And he'll be known as handicapped.
So let's be careful where he's sent,
We want his life to be content.
Please Lord, find the parents who
Will do a special job for you.
They will not realize right away
The leading role they're asked to play,
But with this child sent from above
Comes stronger faith and richer love.
And soon they'll know the privilege given
In caring for their gift from Heaven.
Their precious charge, so meek and mild,
Is HEAVEN'S VERY SPECIAL CHILD.

Autism” is a pervasive developmental disorder in the children, with severe behavioral manifestations and communication disorders. It is characterized by deficits in social, communication and motor behaviors. Speech and language abnormalities in autism show a lot of individualistic variation.

The occurrence of autism is at a rate of approximately 1 in 500 people. At India’s current population, this means there are an estimated 1.7 million autistic persons in the country, assuming that there are no significant variations in this rate worldwide.

WAT DOES THEY NEED FROM US????

Though they don't understand our words , which sounds Greek and Latin..... They want us to talk to them. Though they grow slow... sloww..... and slowwww....... they want to to wait till they growwww..... Though they are to be sympathized ,,, they don't need that any more..... let our empathy strengthen them. Blessed are those who think of those kids as a person who loves, and hurts, and feels joy and pain just like we do, for in that respect that they are normal......
