Autistic girl.

I saw this video tonight and was so struck by what I really did not understand. Please take the time to watch this video. It will open your eyes to what is really going on inside the mind of so many people with mental illness. What you see on the outside may be VERY different from what's going on inside. This is a must see.

I came across that vid last year while plundering around this http://www.wimp.com/fishbarrel/ site. The majority of the general public see the mentally handicapped as sub-human, sad.

In college I had the priveledge of working with severly handicapped children.
Most had mental challenges and one of the Docs told me that a lot of these were because of faulty nerve transmissions and to make their bodies do what they are thinking. He then said communication is the trickiest thing our brains do. Then said, "Joe, these kids just can't tell you how much they truly understand. Most probably are in reality smarter then I will ever be." Great share and I'll proudly admit...it brought tears to my eyes. Thinking of being trapped in a body that just won't nlisten. Keith GREAT share and I thank you.

That's a really cool story! I'm just curious though, how did she learn how to read and write? It seemed like they were just teaching her very basic stuff. Not trying to be negative, just curious.
