Dame Stephanie Shirley

Just returned from Horseboy Camp – great but absolutely exhausting. Met some great families with autistic children but how hard it is for them. The constant attention required would kill lesser people.
Listening to Radio 4 Desert Island Disc podcast with Dame Stephanie Shirley - an amazing woman who has done and is doing so much for Autism. But, even she had a breakdown and ended up in hospital whilst she was looking after her late son who had autism – makes me feel slightly better about having a bad day.
