I wondered about everyones feelings on this.Maybe it bothers me more,because my youngest grandson is autistic!I heard this on the radio news yesterday,& I can't get it out of my mind.
Malden,Mass.
A mother,who lived in a housing complex,asked a neighbor,to watch,her 5yr old,autistic son,while she went to the basement,to
use the laundry facilities.Somehow,the boy,made it down,3 flights of stairs,clad only in diapers.Another neighbor,looked down&saw a body,in diapers,floating,face down,in the complex pool.She
immediately called 911.When Police&EMTs arrived,they found,at
least,a dozen people,standing around the pool&pointing to where
he was floating.Not one had removed him from the pool.A police
spokesman,was asked,by the newsmedia,if removing the body
and giving CPR,might have saved his life.He replied:We don't know yet,how long he has been dead,but the awnser is obvious,
You figure it out!It was worth a try!
That's one of the reasons,that I appreciate someone,who will
"watch my back!"No one wants to get involved anymore.Every-
one worries about,the "possible"consequences,instead of the
immediate problem.Does this bother anyone but me? Irish
P.S.Many autistic children can't talk or yell.My 7yr old autistic
grandson,carries a book,with velcro backed pictures.When he wants something,he points to the picture.
