I do not have any kind of alert set for autism....but in my health news section occasionally these articles appear as did the one a few days ago about the brain cortex thickness in the Early Autism Diagnosis Study.
And then, of course, we know the profound difference in the developing brain that the zika virus makes.
So, yesterday, those 2 things...virus, infections, and brain development...were discussed in a new finding. I do not think this is generally a topic for this board. I thought of perhaps Direct Messaging this article to a couple of sisters. But why not share on the public format. If it is not something of interest, just pass this post by.

Hi guys
thank you all so much for all the love and support....it has been a few days and we are doing better.....saying goodbye is hard but we know she's in a better place and in no more pain....Niecey is doing better....she is making the dvd to be played and given away at the funeral and that seems to be good for her....her doc has spoken with the hospital in Jacksonville and has worked it out where we will be able to go up on Sunday do the funeral on Monday and come back on Tuesday.....so the next several days are going to be very busy and emotional for us, but we will still be looking forward to the season and enjoying it with you guys (as she would have wanted us too)
gonna go catch up a bit (((hugs)))
Glad your doctor found a way for you and Niecey to go to the funeral. Yesterday, my eldest was pallbearer at his Grandmother's funeral. He doesn't remember ever having been to a funeral (they were overseas and/or he was too young to remember). Good to hear that Niecey has found her own way of working through grief. My eldest had his closest friend staying over the night before. He only returned from overseas on Monday and will move to the other end of the continent tomorrow, to live for the next three years He is grateful that the funeral was this week, as he wouldn't have been able to say goodbye otherwise. He was glad to see relatives he hadn't seen for years before leaving tomorrow.
Wishing you and Niecey strength to get through the next few days. xox

I guess you need some child free time??
So the guy has 'faithfulness' tattooed across his chest. It sounds clunky for a tattoo. Why not 'fidelity'?
Our expert April needs to have a look.ok ......ummm......who is he?????
He is Sharna's celebrity, Bonner Bolton, formerly professional bull rider who broke his neck and is a model now.

Sincere sympathy to your older son, gabriele, on the loss of his grandmother.
^^^
Crazy Horse is the perfect segue to the poems of Tecumseh. He was a leader of the Shawnee Indian tribe, lived in the late 1700's in the area now known as Ohio, and died in 1813.
The reason I bring it up is that I was recently reading about him. And I love this (below) that has to do with death.
__________________
Live your life that the fear of death
can never enter your heart.
Trouble no one about his religion.
Respect others in their views
and demand that they respect yours.
Love your life, perfect your life,
beautify all things in your life.
Seek to make your life long and of service to your people.
Prepare a noble death song for the day
when you go over the great divide.
Always give a word or sign of salute when meeting
or passing a friend, or even a stranger, if in a lonely place.
Show respect to all people, but grovel to none.
When you rise in the morning, give thanks for the light,
for your life, for your strength.
Give thanks for your food and for the joy of living.
If you see no reason to give thanks,
the fault lies in yourself.
Touch not the poisonous firewater that makes wise ones turn to fools
and robs the spirit of its vision.
When your time comes to die, be not like those
whose hearts are filled with fear of death,
so that when their time comes they weep and pray
for a little more time to live their lives over again
in a different way.
Sing your death song, and die like a hero going home.
The Teaching of Tecumseh
