Dear fellow CCs, April is Autism Awareness Month and as you may or may not know, our son Max is severely autistic. There are so many people out there that do not know about autism. I know this partially to the silly comments made to me about my son or the nasty comments made on the sly, out loud in public about my son by strangers that do not understand. Max is almost 6 and he does not talk, he is having a very hard time with communication and sometimes I have some very hard days with him. I wont sadden you or bore you with my home-life details but I am emailing this to the list to ask a favor. The favor would be for all of the CCs to please put up something on your websites home page regarding April being Autism Awareness Month. The graphics seem to be plentiful thank goodness for you to use on your websites. I have some links below for those if you want them. I have linked my graphics to autsim.org - for education purposes. You dont have to link the ribbon to anything, just want to get the word out to people. I have made envelope seals even, I put them on bills, anything I mail out. Anyways, I thank you so much for reading this and appreciate the help. Wendy - Maxs mom and your fellow CC.

I have updated my sites with the graphics. Wendy Barry wrote: >Dear fellow CCs, >April is Autism Awareness Month and as you may or may >not know, our son Max is severely autistic.
