Wings for Autism Takes the Fear out of Flying

“My husband, Grant, and my daughter, Jasmine, were nervous wrecks on the plane, worried about terrorists and losing our luggage. They both dithered obsessively about everything. At one point I thought I had lost our passports, and both of them came unglued. They screamed at me that I couldn’t be trusted and that we would all be arrested. Good grief. All I did was stuff the passports in the wrong pocket and had to search for a few minutes to find them. But they made it almost impossible for me to do that because I became so upset by their accusations. When I finally found the passports, they were both so upset that they blamed me for upsetting them, too. But we got home in one piece, with all of our luggage and our passports – and my sanity.”
