Bring Hope to Autism
The picture you see is Alex. At 6½, after years of searching to find out about Alex's developmental problems we were finally given a diagnosis of Autism. At the time, I did not know what Autism meant. What I did know was he did not communicate with us, he never used the words "I" or "me" and never shared his feelings. He loved to clap his hands, swing back and forth and throw Legos against the wall.
About once every three months he would have a seizure. One time after my show at HSN, I went to home that night and put him in bed. The next morning I woke up to find he was unconscious. I immediately called 911 and the emergency team flew him and I on a helicopter to the hospital. For more than two hours I could not get him back, it was the most frightening experience of my life.
Today, after 5½ years with Alex getting treatment from Autism Treatment Center of America™ and also Traditional Chinese medicine, Alex's seizures have become a vague memory. He is clearly communicating what he wants and how he feels. He can have a conversation with me and play with his sister. Just awhile ago, I was playing with him, he stopped and said "Mommy I love you." Tears poured down my face and Alex had to console me :)
I feel so blessed; and at the same I remember that 1 out of every 150 children are born with autism, I know it is an incredible challenge for many families. The Autism Treatment Center of America™ has brought hope and rainbows to my family as we work with my son, and I’ve simply been inspired watching the work of Autism Speaks™ as it builds awareness and acceptance of this condition which affects so many.
To help bring even more rainbows to the families affected by autism, I've created this special WE Help Bring Hope collection to support the work of The Autism Treatment Center of America™ and Autism Speaks™ . Collection by collection, box by box, we will donate the entire purchase price of the collection ($70) to these organizations. It is a way to truly look beautiful, feel wonderful and to be helpful. Together, let's bring the hope and thank you from the bottom of my heart for keeping hope alive.
Thank you for being part of my life and sharing this journey with me.
Love,
Wei

What is Autism?
Autism is a complex neurobiological disorder that impacts communication, behavior and social relationships. It is part of a group of disorders known as autism spectrum disorders (ASD). Today, it is estimated that one in every 150 children is diagnosed with autism, making it more common than childhood cancer, juvenile diabetes and pediatric AIDS combined. An estimated 1.5 million individuals in the U.S. and tens of millions worldwide are affected by autism. Government statistics suggest the prevalence rate of autism is increasing 10-17 percent annually. There is no established explanation for this increase, although improved diagnosis and environmental influences are two reasons often considered. Studies suggest boys are more likely than girls to develop autism and receive the diagnosis three to four times more frequently.
