“Alam mo bang sa Pilipinas, halos kalahating milyong pamilya ay apektado ng autism?” Sabi ng lalaking nakausap ko habang nanonood ng programa ng umagang iyon. Autism din daw ang pinakamabilis na kumakalat na developmental disability. Mas marami ang mayroong autism kaysa sa mga taong may diabetes. Kanser, at AIDS. Pasalamat daw kay Fidel V. Ramos kasi pinirmahan niya ang presidential Proclamation No. 711 na nagsasabing ang ikatlong linggo ng Enero ay Autism Consciousness Week (O sige na nga, Salamat po Tandang Pidel!).
