Right or Left Handed?

I have just been viewing the website of an Autism community group in my local area. On the website it states that "many people with Autism are left-handed", almost implying that the majority of Autistic people are left-handed

As I am right-handed, I find myself wondering if I am in a minority, or if I've misinterpreted that statement.

  • I'm glad you had morphine to help you through it. Still sounds like your a very calm level headed person. I don't think you sound cold. You sound wise and practical. I tell the children I teach that every day is a learning day as well :-) 

  • I was on a lot of morphine! I bet your toes really did hurt. I have a mindset that if you can’t alter something then don’t waste time on it. I know I can sound cold, but it’s better to look for something that will make a situation better. Every day is a learning day.Smiley

  • Wow you were so calm and together after such a traumatic experience. I can imagine if in your situation I would have fallen apart. I broke three toes when I was in my teens and I can remember crying to the doctor asking if they would ever heal again. I got so upset. Ha, not my best moment.

  • Thank you, a memory that just came back was the consultant coming to my bed to say that the fingers couldn’t be re-attached. He then said that I could have counselling to help me with my loss. My autistic question then was “ will this counselling make my fingers regrow?” his answer was obviously “no”. I just replied with “ well I don’t need it then”. His last comment was, “ We don’t get many people like you, but I wish we did.
