Don't worry about the above comment; I heard from you in the meantime. Thanks!

Hi Michael. I have been trying to contact you at [email protected] for the last week and a half or so (an email from me that I sent again a week later, and another one from my son), but we haven't heard back from anyone. Is this still a good way to reach you? I really would like to be in contact, so please let me know.

Thanks.

Hi, Michael. I only became aware of Jani and your family a few weeks ago when I came across your Oprah show while looking up something on the Internet. Since that time my family and I have read January First and anything else we had time to read on the Internet about your family. I cannot put into words how much the incredible love and commitment you have for your children means to me, as well as your unceasing drive to fight for all mentally ill children.

I am very interested in finding out whether I qualify for your online support group. I am a 59 year old woman with a mild ASD, OCD, and a severe chronic pain condition (Complex Regional Pain Syndrome). My adult son has an ASD also, and my husband has ADD. We have been abandoned by our families of origin because of all of our disabilities (and I come from a Holocaust family, no less!) and we are struggling and sinking. Your and Susan's response to having disabled kids has rekindled my faith in (at least some) of humanity, and it would mean a lot to me and my family to be in touch with you and others like you. Who knows, maybe we could even help!

Please let me know if there is a way to find out whether I would be eligible to participate in your support group. Thank you so much.
