Coming Together to Help Autistic Children. Proceeds to Benefit the Pioneer Learning Center.
Dear Friend,
The latest statistics show that 1 out of 144 children have autism (up from 1 out of 10,000 just two decades ago).
In my house, 1 out of 2 children has autism. My 8 year old Ryan.
Three years ago, Ryan was diagnosed with Asperger’s disorder, part of the Autism Spectrum. He often experiences sensory overload, where certain sounds and images of TV and radio causes his brain to malfunction. We would often find him huddled in our closet, screaming uncontrollably, and frightened beyond belief. Normal everyday sounds are “fingernails being scratched on a chalkboard” to an autistic child.
As The Music Plays
As the music plays
my heart aches
it aches with pain
pain of the past
and pain of the present
As the music plays
my heart aches
it aches with hurt
hurt that I have caused
and hurt that has been caused
As the music plays
my heart aches
it aches with passion
passion that yearns
and passion that wants
As the music plays
my heart aches
it aches with love
love that will never be shared
and love that will never be known
As the music stops
my heart no longer aches
it doesn’t feel anything
the music has stopped
and so has everything else.
