With a Brush of Love presents... Janet Grillo

Janet Grillo, Producer, Indie Film Director, Writer - ,

"Fly Away" is a labor of love made with love. Why did we do it? Because we had a story to tell. One that hundreds of thousands of families are facing; what happens when a child with autism becomes an adult? What will sustain them as they outlive their parents and caregivers?

I'm one of those parents. My own son is 17. But we're of the lucky few. He was mildly impacted, and after decades of intense intervention, a miracle did occur. He progressed out of the autism spectrum! But don't get all excited. It doesn't mean he's "cured." He still has massive learning differences and life skill challenges. And I'm actively looking into every "transition to adult living" program and support system out there. Sad to say, there's very little available. But at least my son will one day live independently. Unlike most of the 800,000 Americans currently diagnosed on the Autism spectrum.
