Jennifer's story

Aw man...I feel bad for Jennifer...i don't know anyone that has Autism but everything she said, I feel applies to anyone with cancer.

We are NOT CANCER...we ARE HUMAN BEINGS.....

There was a part in the video where she said, all the people around her...taking blood...doing things...no explanations....

That would not happen to me.....I would have been throwing a ton of questions at them before they touched me...but possibly with Autism you can not think fast enough when you get overwhelmed.

I liked the part where she has found herself...her confidence....and God bless her!
