MDJunction to me

"When I was diagnosed I was scared didn't know what to do or where to go..I started reserching bipolar and somehow ended up here at MD....Again scared but needing to know what was in store I asked a question..WOW the people who care..I know I would be lost now if I did not join..made many friends and they have helped me through thick and thin. and never judged...........XX Thank you MD and all.Love all of you.......Laurie Pachin" (puppylover)

What are you doing for Autism Awareness Day?

We bought blue shirts and are making our own t-shirts. We will wear them at church later today for the Good Friday service.

We are also going to bead some bracelets.

My family and I all wore blue for my oldest son, Owen. I'm hoping that this will educate the public on the disorder.

That is really nice that you are doing something special for the month. I never thought of it. I will have to talk it over with the husband and see if we can come up with something interesting or fun.

Question: What's with the color blue? I know the autism ribbon is multicolored so I wasn't sure where the blue came from.
