Hello everyone... My name is Hali and this is my first time on this site.

I have joined forces with my friend who has a severely autistic brother. After learning about the disease and what his family goes through each day, I am very passionate about reaching out to everyone who is impacted with this disease. I created a group on facebook called "Awetism is the new Autism" where everyone can gather for added support.
I would love if everyone could join! There seems to be great discussions going on as we speak!

As for me, I'm 23 years old, a graduate student getting my MBA in marketing, and I am currently interning at the company MediChatMD. If you are interested in LIVE CHATTING with people that are in similar situations as you are, or if they have "been there and done that," MediChatMD has the capabilities to offer you great guidance and advice. CHeck it out, it can't hurt.

Welcome to WrongPlanet, Hali!

You may find some people do not like the use of the word "disease" on this website, just a little word of warning.
Hope you enjoy your stay here :)

Thanks so much for the warning TenPencePiece. I'll be sure to phrase it differently next time! Thanks for the welcome!

Where are you from? How long have you been on this site?

I found this website in 2006, joined up but forgot all about it (I was young then though)
Then I joined on this account in late 2009, but didn't post much until this year :)

As it says to the left, I am in Greater Manchester, UK.
