Great review and please read the comments guys! One in particular, in case peeps don't bother, is this one (It brought tears to my eyes!):
I must share a beautiful story guys. My 14-year-old son with autism, multiple disabilities, nonverbal, sways back and forth to his music. He also has seizures. Throughout his life, he has inspired so many people and he is loved by so many, too. We had to make a hard decision not to buy tickets to see Adam because I needed to get him some intensive help. Last week my friend saw my Facebook post that Adam was going to be in town and oh, the sacrifices we make for our children. She not only bought us 3 tickets, but 4, to have extra space and gave us spending money for swag. I was 50% petrified and 50% excited not being sure how he was going to respond to a situation like this. This kid was almost catatonic at 18 months and here he was fitting right in. For 75 minutes (we stayed in the lobby for Alison just to make sure he was going to be okay) seeing Adam, I got to experience what most parents take for granted: My son could enjoy an activity like every other teenager could without standing out as "strange" and I got to feel what a true inclusion moment was like. I was crying tears of joy. Amazing, amazing experience. Thanks to Cori Stevenson at Hobby Center and Carolina who were prepared for worst-case scenario for my son (seizure). Thank goodness it didn't happen.
