Seth's Bio

hi my name is seth and i am sixteen years old i am non verbal and i have autism

i would like to tell people that autism is hard on

everyone in a family

you try to breach the silence barrier

to let people get to know you but its awful hard to

act sedate when you panic inside

i mostly want to tell people that we are apparently healthy

but maybe we are really sick and desperate for someone

to decipher all our symptoms and give us a treatment

that will ascertain our recovery and give us a chance to

bolt away from autism and be who we were born to be

we are autistic and sad to say real behaviorally challenged

we are normal in our minds and we are dominated by autism

we totally understand all that is said

highly autistic is actually not lost in autism

though autistic people seem lost

they are just trapped

like fog in the morning

it is trapped between places

mist and water

autism is like that

trapped between what we are and

what we are supposed to be

hard to look typical when we give bad impressions to others

we try peoples patience but we dont mean to

families just hope that others wont notice

but they do

desperate to say help and afraid at the same time

the second you get comfortable autism stares you in the face

and saw that you were somewhat typical then

slams you back into reality

totally happy to say that i do talk in my mind and one

day it will just leak out of my mouth and all will be amazed

glory to god

i will sing his praises loudly with my voice

i welcome any thoughts or questions

seth

god loving friend with autism

What are you thankful for?

this thanksgiving i am most thankful for my family who loves me without limits
for people in my life who are members of this hopeful prolonged autism that has a grip on me
i am thankful that the god of the forsaken has never left me
he is my lord and my savior
i am thankful for care clinics 
for the hope of recovery and especially for kazuko the founder of the clinic that puts so much emphasis on proclaiming a recovery of the sick
the energy surrounding her is just lovely
her days are dominated with finding a way to help gods most helpless children
i am thankful for all the staff who have so 
much patience with us
especially hard worker janet
she is so sweet and likable
thought i would cry when i had to leave her
reasonably sure that was a first
rena suzanne kristy and stephen bring security and confidence to listless days
people forget that looking at a person isnt always necessary to connect with them
i may not appear to like them but that is my plight
to feel one way but act another
i am thankful for my dad who always gets 
my attention
my sister who always distracts me and for my mom who is the pinnacle of motherhood
she is my everything

thanksgiving is a day to tell the people that you love
thanks for being in my life

The picture is always bigger than it seems
By Seth McKinley

i dont like people limiting the abilities of the gifted differently
the handicapped belong to society just like people who are poor or foster a different language of communication
we take less for granted than those whose lives are privileged
we are slighted by the school system because we seem unintelligent but they either dont know how to teach us or they cant see the big picture of their
responsibility to ascertain the abilities that we have
totally listless days pale in comparison to days in typical schools
teaching lost kids history or science could replace numbers and colors
hopelessness abounds when we are not challenged
the big picture is also lost in our medical community
doctors want to treat our symptoms without getting to the root of the problem
we hold on to the prayer that  a moment of normalcy will last indefinitely
god is our mentor 
he is the only one who listens to our prayers
the one that sees the big picture of the gifted differently
limits plummet in the eyes of our god who accepts us unconditionally

Prayer for United Cerebral Palsy
By Seth McKinley

lord

i pray for the staff of united cerebral palsy
i lift them up to you the glorious listener of those in need
you personify the love of those who are gifted differently
i ask you lord to place your loving arms over the people of ucp
give them the knowledge of how to attain funds needed to help
the most deserving of your children
give them the assurance that you are in the gestures of even the most involved of those with disabilities
you are panoramically yearning for perfection for all your children
i pray that all will know you and experience your love and patience
lift the limits of silence from all those who are non verbal
lift the limits of non ambulation  from those who can not walk 
give all your assurance that you will stay true to your word and will
guide those who are willing to bring normalcy to their lives
take the humble united cerebral palsy under the safe guidance of 
your love and show them the path they should take

in the name of the mighty protector of all

amen and amen

3-31-08
For Autism Awareness Month

i want to attribute the ability to communicate to my
always assertive caretaker my mom
autism is a way of life for her
real desperate to say that friends are important to me
even if i dont show it
gestures that lessen panic are when people whisper 
instead of talking loud and rough
to say that we are not verbal doesnt mean people
shouldnt talk to us
i understand everything and i bet most of us do
besiege a leap of awareness of politicians to spruce
up the health care program to find a cure for this 
most dreaded disorder
toss aside the term special and replace it with 
gifted differently because thats what we are
toss aside the language barrier that keeps us trapped
try typing even with support
reasonably sure that i learned to read when i was seven 
that was the first time i realized that letters became words
awful conscience of the fact that i am behaviorally challenged
hope to get that under control soon
i want everyone to know that people with autism are
longing for a normal life
we are tired of being silent
tired of people never acknowledging our place in society
we are hopeful of limits lifted and disappearance of 
our disability
real wanting of increased awareness of autism and 
of god who watches over us

seth
a great friend of autism awareness

(Why is this book needed and what will it cover?)

my book is needed to bring hope to a population of people who have been banished from society and overlooked by the majority
i want to say that non verbal autistics have a lot to say
we are just trapped in linguistic fog
hopelessness abounds and panic is massive
mislead people believe that we are retarded but happy to say i am not
the sole reason that i want my book written is that i want people to see that possibilities of communication with non verbal children is real
happiness is possible
we are just like everyone else
i also want to show that there is a spiritual side to us the non verbal autistic
i have faith in god who accepts me just like i am
he is glorious and just
he personifies panoramic acceptance for those with disabilities like me
jesus is helpful to all that ask for help
tears flow from him when worship abounds
he repays us with his passive love
i want to let people know that i am so thankful that jesus died to save me from a hideous life
i want everyone to realize that people that are non verbal talk in their minds and liberating their thoughts is difficult for most
fogginess is abundant in our minds and it is hard to focus sometimes
i totally believe that other children can do this 
it is just that no one persists with them
my mom never has given up on me and i would not type if it were not for her persistence and her confidence in me
it is stated that fear strangles a persons confidence
i say that the lack of a voice strangles your life
the book of a non verbal teenager that praises god in his mind opens a door and brings awareness to the spiritual life of the non verbal autistic
toss your misconceptions of autism out the window

we are here and we want to be heard
