The Physical Aspects of Asperger's Syndrome

I wanted to let you know that I have finished! I have been writing for the past three weeks. I've barely had time to eat or go grocery shopping. I had to force myself to stop writing on my birthday last week. It's either a short book or an incredibly long article. Many people are telling me to just write a book on this subject, which I could. However, I'm more interested in just getting this information out to those who are requesting it.

It's called "The Physical Aspects of Asperger's Syndrome". In it, I've listed, detailed, and described every physical difference in the body of a person with Asperger's. It is more than a mental difference. The mental variances are easy to deal with when compared to the physical differences. It is incredibly hard to maintain health in an autistic body.

I wanted to write in detail about those things. I wrote it to help the 40 or 50 people I know who have Asperger's or whose children have it. They asked me to teach them; they wanted to learn what I know on this subject, and it's hard information to find. I will be teaching this information to those people at our gathering this Sunday. However, I also put it in writing so that there would be a record, and so that I could detail all of the many things I've learned on the subject, and so that it could help those who will find it in the future.

You are invited to read it if you'd like. It is online here: www.blueginger.org/physicalautism.html

There is also a .pdf version to download, but it's 78 pages long, so be prepared.

I worked almost constantly on this for the past three weeks, and I think it turned out very nicely. I hope that it can be a useful reference for those dealing with similar issues. And for everyone else, perhaps it can help you understand me a little better. :-)
