Awareness

I don't know if any of these will help but its worth a try. These are what I have sent to both Dr. Phil and the talk. If we can just get a blurb maybe their stages lit up maybe just maybe we can start the conversation.

Dear Dr. Phil,
I am writing with a simple request, Could you please light your stage up Blue for your April 1 show. April begins Autism Awareness month and April 1 and 2 are world autism day.  I am the mother of a 12 year old with autism and we need more awareness.  Our own White House has refused to light it up blue even though they went pink for breast cancer in October.  We just want to start a conversation for the often misunderstood kids and adults with autism.  You can check out this website http://lightthewhitehouseblue.wordpress.com/ and see the letters people are posting. Thank you for your time.

To The talk: (facebook post on their wall)
hi ladies, I tried to find a contact us on your website but could not. Not sure if you have gotten wind of this yet but I wanted to share a website with you. The current administration has refused to light the white house blue for autism, though it has been lit pink for breast cancer and the water in the fountain was green for st. paddys day. I digress a little. There is a website that has been starting to implore the white house to light it up blue. To many people do not know what autism is. I myself am the mother of a 12 year old with autism. Please take a moment to read the letter that a woman named Jess wrote. The website is http://lightthewhitehouseblue.wordpress.com/2011/03/16/this-is-my-autism/

If you have not already please visit the website and leave your comments.
