Many of you know ( or should know if you've read my YA novel HEAVENLY ) that my daughter "Abria" and her autistic antics are shared in that series.<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Abria continues to bring us challenges and laughs--she's just so sweet. She loves unconditionally. We're amazed, shocked and pleased when she does something really smart -- like she did last night! </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">She ADORES bacon. I keep it in the freezer. So, she takes her empty sorbet container, cleaned and washed out, and she HIDES bacon in it and stashes it in her bedroom for later!! </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Unfortunately, bacon, filled with nitrates, makes her angry--so we don't let her eat it. But, like most of us who want things we can't have, Abria never lets that stop her. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Part of me wants to be proud of her thinking outside the box!! Right?? </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Here are some updated pics of Abria today.

HEAVENLY, book one of the Heavenly series is FREE on Amazon.<br /><br />Heavenly is the story of a girl who falls in love with her autistic sister's guardian angel. <br /><br />Heavenly is close to my heart, the events taken from my own family's struggles living with a child who has autism. Each of my family members reacted to this challenge differently. Sometimes it felt like we would never make it through-- that everything was falling apart. <br /><br />The experience was intense but we're stronger because of it.<br /><br />I've been told Heavenly feels "real", that the characters are "like people I know", that the story penetrates.
