Bravo!

Jenny McCarthy is a funny lady...that's no surprise. She is also a strong woman who will fight fiercely and without fail for her child. I learned this about her after reading her book, Louder Than Words, A Mother's Journey in Healing Autism. The book is well written and an easy read although the story itself will bring tears to your eyes.
Jenny makes it clear that she is not after our pity, however. She bravely puts the details of this heart breaking and inspirational journey out there in an effort to help others by sharing. She states that a "what to do pamphlet" after the diagnosis would have been a god-send and attempts to point others in the right direction by creating her own. Numerous web-sites are listed for further education and research on autism. A portion of the book's proceeds go to the "UCLA Early Childhood Partial Hospitalization Program. The funds will help build additional classrooms so that more autistic children can get the help they deserve." Bravo Jenny, you did good...
