Your Child's Diagnosis Day | Autism Parent Support Card, Black Family

For the parent who sat in a room today and heard words like severe, low-functioning, and forever, and needs someone to say the doctor doesn't get the last word. This version shows a Black parent and child.

Front: They used big words today. Severe. Low-functioning. Forever.

Watercolor of a child's small brown hand resting in a parent's hand, a rainbow infinity ribbon wound around both wrists, wildflowers below.

Inside message:
But they don't know your child, and they don't know your strength. They see statistics where you see your baby's smile. They see a list of can'ts where you'll find a whole person.
Their words are not your child's story. You get to write that one together, one day at a time.
And yes, you will make it. Both of you.

The left inside panel is left blank for your own handwritten note.
