Autism

Catherine Parry, a former BYU English professor, spoke with The Apple Seed's producer Andy Bay about stepping away from work to raise her autistic son, Will. In the interview Catherine talks about acting as Will's aid all through school and learning to accept her son's new-found freedom as an adult. The third segment of this episode includes an interview with Will, Catherine's son, who spoke to Andy about his day-to-day life, preferences, and experiences.   Pictured above: nineteen year-old Will Parry.
