About being a Panelist at the Conference:

Well it's behind me now!
No, really, I loved every minute of it- It was great!
I came to the Conference earlier to hear the key note speaker's presentation, which was really good, and then everyone went to the rooms of the workshops, they registered to. I was a panelist for the first time in my life, speaking about parenting and self advocacy, and it went just as planned. There were two other speakers on the panel. Each of us had a different kind of presentation, different style of speaking, and I thought it was really wonderful to see how people with Asperger's could stand in front of other people and talk about themselves, their families in so many ways and with such passion...

I enjoyed myself and I think that next time I do this, It would be even easier for me, as I do get more practice and experience each time I speak in front of people- I've even noticed that this time around, looking at the people didn't make my voice tremble anymore- isn't that outstanding?!
