"With current treatments and educational programs many of these children are expected to speak and to eventually make good academic progress. But, the devastating effects of Autism will remain throughout their lives and will constitute a major impediment to a quality of life for all but a small minority of those afflicted. Even after years of intensive treatment, estimates are that at most 10% are expected to gain full-time employment and less than 5% are projected to live independently. Relationships outside of the immediate family are rare and marriage is almost unheard of. Debilitating anxiety, hopelessness, unemployment, or marginal employment and isolation are still the norm for adults with this disorder." - FARR

In June of 2003, we were blessed with the birth of our triplets. 2 girls and a boy. We thought then that our lives had changed forever. Little did we know what was in store for our family. At the age of 2, our precious son Kirby was diagnosed with Autism. Our whole world changed on that day. We were told to adjust our goals and dreams for Kirby, that most likely he would never leave home, and that we would have to "settle" for what his limitations would be. We were devastated. We felt that there was no hope. We wanted to cry, and in the days to come, we did cry.
