Recovered: Journeys Through the Autism Spectrum and Back2008

Mary Jane:
The neurologist who diagnosed Ruffin was very clear and very blunt with me. He told me that it was possible or likely that Ruffin would never be employed, that he would never work productively, that he would not know that I loved him, nor would he love me, nor would he be likely to marry, and that if I had money I should probably invest it because I would need it to be able to care for him lifetime.
