He probably passed due to a seizure. People gravitated to Georgie… so, I was very fortunate

in that way. Those of us who deal with autistic children or adults everyday… we know there’s

something different in there. I have to say I was not aware that this was something that

was available. And so, as soon as I heard tissue it just snapped for me because I really

believe that that’s where some answers are. And I thought that with Georgie that he’s

so much more than just tissue. That anything that could help with autism diagnosis or cure

he could certainly be part of. Most of us who have lived with autism most of our adult

lives are very much into research and I think this is a way to really give it a boost up.

I think that it’s really a way that a parent can turn and say, you know, I did everything

while my son or daughter was alive and I’m just going to give it that extra boost now

that they’ve passed on because the tissue may indeed really be the answer. Even if its

40 years from now it’ll be Georgie’s tissue maybe that helps and that keeps him alive

in my heart.
