Seattle PI publishes article; PSA on NW Afternoon
Today is a great day for FiveHumans, I'm still smiling from all the excitement.
An article in the Seattle PI was published about Lee, his type 1 diabetes, our autism t-shirt and everything FiveHumans. I am still amazed a reporter wanted to talk to me, how cool.
Please check it out and spread the word:
http://seattlepi.nwsource.com/local/358259_fivehumans09.html
If you actually purchase or receive the PI on your doorstep, you can find us on the front page of the Local section.
::
We also filmed a Public Service Announcement today at NW Afternoon. It is a 15 second spot informing viewers that 1 in 150 children will be diagnosed with Autism this year and also how they can go online to FiveHumans.com to support autism and other causes. It will air today 4/9 at 3 pm PST, KOMO, Channel 4. Aaron said he made a weird face after his face tired of smiling and I think I looked away from the camera (it was odd to be smiling when talking about autism and the staggering statistic) so we'll have to see if we look like complete tools or not. hee hee
Thanks to the following for coming today and supporting us: Kristin, Stacy, Bob, Michelle, Nicole, Kitt, Arian, Dan, Cliff, Mark and Jill.
If you want to see our cheesy faces and the faces of our beautiful friends, the show we were in the audience for will air on Friday or Monday.

Personally, I think the whole day has been kind of surreal but I am enjoying every minute of it.

Ernie Els latest celebrity dad with autistic child
Today starts Autism Awareness Month and looking online you can see how many people are affected by this cause. It is really important that we pay attention to our children and start talking about ways we can help this cause. I have included an article that I found on Ernie Els, the professional golfer, his son has been diagnosed with Autism.
Please spread the word, the more we get people talking about it, the more we can make a change.
