Dear T,
You seemed very passionate on your views of autism treatment (particularly the biomedical stuff). Your use of phrases like "astronomical cost," referring to not just financial but personal energy and the marriage, and how it might lead to "maybe 5% improvement" sounds like you've definitely had some sort of personal experience with it. Even if ex-T hadn't told me anything (which, as you said, may or may not be currently accurate) or I hadn't seen your wife's post in that one group (and, ok, my going back and reading her earlier posts--still sorry about that!...), I think I'd wonder. Was your wife investing lots of time on research and money on treatments without much success, and that caused marital issues? Or maybe it's not about your son, but something that happened with, say, the family of your brother or a close friend? Or just clients? Eh, it seemed more personal than clients....

I'm not going to ask you about it. It just struck me. I do really appreciate your saying I'm doing enough and more than many parents would do. It means a lot, and means perhaps a bit more if you've also been there.

Love,
LT
