i have not seen 'adam', but i really did like snow cake, urs!

the character opposite sigourney weaver in this film was awesome because he did not personalise 'her needs' - or trample all over what boundaries [the kitchen!] she needed to set in place in order to cope /just go on to the next step each day for her.

i loved that.

Another thread was started regarding the Children's Hospital in Boston and reading through it I was lead to this article. I pray more Governors/ politicians will follow this lead!

This is GREAT news! I wish that the awareness/treatments of today were in place when Bratboy was diagnosed - it would have made the journey less arduous.

A new brain scan which can detect autism with more than 90% accuracy has been developed by scientists from Kings College London.

The researchers say the scan should make diagnosis of the condition quicker and more straightforward, but some experts warn that more testing will be needed before the technique is rolled out to the public.

Jane Hughes reports.

I saw Adam a couple of weeks ago. I was curious so I rented it.
