I do read her sometimes. She is the person that completely changed my perception of so called low functioning/classic autistics.

wow incredible. made me cry. someone asked me in a forum what i was like, what my autism was like, and i talked about a scene like that if i was sitting in a restaurant with him. looking inattentive but it being the opposite. Makes me so thankful that am able to text out my needs to my dad. things were a lot worse along those lines when i was littler. Am posting that video all over the place :)

Seen this several times. Shared it with my mom first (I loved it but was intense), she better understands the light, sound, and action I have.

That's a very good video. It gives me insight of what goes through the minds of two people that I knew of when I was quite a bit younger. Carly knew exactly what she wanted for a drink in that video. She was also very aware of her peers walking in and out of the cafe.
