bio
I am an adult with Asperger's Syndrome. In 2014, I separated from my husband and moved in with my mom. It was difficult to move back home after having had the freedom of my own apartment for about six years. During my lifetime I've lived with my Grandma, my Aunt, my mother-in-law ,step father and mother. Also, I can't drive. I spent most of my teenage and adult years angry about that. My mom, who is in her sixties, is my main transportation. I have no access to public transit where I live and can't afford to move to where it is available. I am entering this contest on behalf of all the autistic individuals who live with aging parents, and who will enter adulthood in the next five years and beyond. Thank You.
