Vale Sue Salthouse. She will be remembered as a passionate advocate for people with disabilty. And a warm, generous and giving person. Gone too early 😢

Let me try and explain to you why your autistic child spends so much time in their room in front of that damned computer. Its because it’s safe. It’s because they have control over that space like in no other part of their life. A MOTHERFUCKING THREAD.
