Autism Speaks

There are many diseases and injuries that affect us around the world.  I learned about one, specifically traumatic brain injuries, in 2009 through my brother.  Since his car accident, my brother's life and mine has dramatically changed.  Unlike my brother, some lives begin with change.  Parents are affected when they're child is born with something like Autism.  Some of my friends know this first hand, and I've been asked to perform at an event in Atlanta, Night of Awareness: Autism Speaks Because of this, I've been able to learn more about this disorder and how it affects our population.  Recent studies have estimated the lifetime cost of an autistic individual to roughly be $3.2 million.  Parents with an Autistic child have a 2-8% chance of having a second child that's affected.  These disorders, are 4 to 5 times, on average, more likely to occur in boys than in girls.  These are just a few of the statistics.  Well, I'm a very optimistic person.  I don't focus on statistics too much.  I focus on what can be done to change them.  Honeys, we can attend this event and donate to help improve someone's life.  With a $25 ticket donation, you can do just that.  So, RSVP now at Autism Speaks.  Let's come together and fight Autism!
