Dear brothers and sisters in Christ,
If there is anybody who knows anything about autism spectrum disorders (ASDs) or high-functioning autism/Asperger's Syndrome which I was diagnosed with, and the terrible, debilitating social trouble it causes, then you'll understand how much I'm suffering in my present abode and actually choosing to be anti-social and only speak when spoken to, in order to prevent people screaming and shouting at me, and to not cause trouble which I never meant to cause. But with my ASD, I cause trouble unintentionally and inadvertently!
I feel like packing my suitcase and leaving the flat where I currently live, but then I'll be homeless! My Immigrant Visa for me to go and live with my mother in California is still being worked on, and nobody can give us even a rough idea of when I'll get my Visa. It could be another 5 weeks, 5 months or maybe (God forbid it) 5 years! Nobody knows, and I'm dreading Christmas Day.
Browsing the Internet and looking for help and support for people with ASDs and high-functioning autism, I found a fantastic charity very close to where my Mom lives, in Palm Desert. They are the Coachella Valley Autism Society (CVASA), and I honestly can't wait to go and consult them. Both the British and the Americans have got great living facilities that offer people with ASDs the best possible help and support. For people with ASDs, South Africa is the wrong country to be in! My laptop and smartphone have become my best friends right now, with God coming first.
Please pray REALLY HARD for my Visa to be issued VERY VERY quickly!
Thanks and God Bless you all.
