    I found Jacqui’s presentation hugely thought provoking.
    Advancing years have brought additional vulnerabilities to the forefront and I do fear for the future.
    However, there are a lot of good people out there, researching and working in the field of neurodivergent people and aging, so I’m trying to not panic anymore than I do normally.
    I also think that Jacqui’s workbook on Autistic aging is a very valuable guide to preparing for advancing years.
    Once again Axia and especially Jacqui, huge thanks for an excellent PDSG.
