About This Blog

12043219_10207595047823967_5709170320566132790_nDiagnosed with autism and with cancer (stage 4 neuroblastoma), Charlie is now 8 years old and in remission.  Busy trying to have a wonderful life, shaking off the trauma of treatment and making sense of his autism.  A thousand stories to tell.  Only one lifetime to tell them in.  Until he finds his voice he has mine.

"What a piece of work is a man! How noble in reason! How infinite in faculty! In form and moving how express and admirable! In action how like an angel! In apprehension how like a god! The beauty of the world!"

Shakespeare
