Contacted by a recently met parent, and friend

A little background here... Now anyone that knows me, or has heard of me at this point, knows how passionite I am about helping our children with ASD's and their parents. I not only do everything I can for my son to help him heal and continue to move toward recovery, but I do all I can for other parents as well. Before starting this blogsite today, I have put myself out there as much as I can to reach all the parents, professionals, families, and those lives touched by ASD's that I can. I became involved with A-CHAMP for the legislative issues, Generation Rescue to be a "Rescue Angel" to anyone looking for help, a member of the National Autism Association, a parent contributor to the Autism Research Institute's parent phone conferences, and volunteered my assistance with the ASWV Conference held this past August in Charleston.

At the ASWV Conference, I suggested and the committee agreed to bring in Nutritionist, Michael Payne (who is one of the many people who sees and has significantly helped Cameron), for presentations about the DAN Protocol, Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy, and several other topics. Michael wanted to see kids and consult with families while he was in, so I sent the word out to everyone I could that if anyone was interested - he would be available for consults. To make a long story short, while helping schedule these consults for him, a parent by the name of Carol Spann contacted me and wanted to see Michael again (had taken her child to see him in the past). We set it up and we eventually met at the conference, and as usual it was very nice to meet and talk to another parent.

Fast forward to this week, and one of the emails that I received was from Carol. She wanted to know if I knew of a local family and expert on the subject to talk to the Legislature and get some great media coverage. After a few emails back and forth, we were both very glad to be back in contact with one another. We also quickly found out that there were several of us attempting to achieve the same goal in passing Cameron's Law, and it was time to bring us all together!
