Emily's adult future with autism

While all children need help with things like bum wipes and having their meals cooked for them, I do worry about Emily will interact with the world as she gets older. I assume she'll be able to dress, bathe, cook for herself, etc. but I'm not guaranteeing it.

I've just found an infographic from NAS (copied below) that outlines what adults with Autism currently need compared to what they receive in way of aid. It's not really all that optimistic reading at the moment.

Have a look for yourself below and if you feel compelled to get your MP on the case, you can add your name at the National Autism Society website.
