I read on a friend's blog that there is going to be a show about autism on Larry King Live this Thursday evening. This is what Larry King's website is saying about the upcoming 'Autism Show':
"The heartbreak ...and hope of autism. Jason "J-Mac" McElwain inspired the worldwith his incredible shot-making at a high school basketball game. Larry talks tothe teen and others about the disorder. Holly Robinson Peete, Doug Flutie andToni Braxton join the discussion to bust myths and present breakthroughs. It'san uplifting hour with those who know!"
Unfortunately, I don't have cable. I'm hoping my mother or sister can tape this for me (hint, hint). If you go to the website for Larry King's show there is a link to send an e-mail for Thursday's show if you have any questions for the guests.
Do you think there's any chance of them putting some other points of view on the show besides the typical celebrity "autism is a tragedy" or "this is how we're coping" type shows we have seen in the past? I sure hope so!
