TRUE STORY: In a small southern NH town, a child with autism took his dog for a walk on a cool misty afternoon. He was dressed in a tee shirt and shorts. During the course of his travels, he got turned around and lost. After desperately searching the house and yard, his mother called the town police. Immediately they went into action calling on surrounding towns to help locate this young child with his dog. They were successfully found but by the time this child was found, it had begun to snow and turned very cold. At the location where the child was found, there was NO ONE who could communicate yet even get this boy to take a blanket and/or get into the cruiser. He obviously was cold, tired and scared. On the scene was a local former NH state police officer and now attorney who knew all about autism ~~ she managed to be the only person the boy would respond to. Giving her direct eye contact, no doubt hearing her reassuring voice, he immediately took the blanket, got into the cruiser along with his dog and was very successfully transitioned. As parents and grandparents of children with autism, we know the true feelings of panic when our loved one is gone out of sight ... you can write your child's name and address on the back side of this bracelet and this will provide you with a true sense of security. Such a small price to pay for peace of mind.
