Talk About Curing Autism (TACA) announces our new spokesperson for families affected by Autism - Jenny McCarthy.

Jenny McCarthy � actress, comedian, model, mother, and author of three NY Times bestsellers can add one more title to her name and career: TACA (Talk About Curing Autism) mom.

Jenny McCarthy's son Evan, diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder in 2005, will be the focus of her upcoming, 4th book: Louder than Words � A Mother's Journey in Healing Autism out on September 17, 2007.

"Her story, her son's journey with autism and her efforts to advocate and reach out to help families affected by autism should be commended," said TACA Executive Director Lisa Ackerman. "We are extremely thankful and blessed to have such an outspoken friend to TACA and families affected by autism. Her efforts will help the autism community in so many ways."

More activities including; a fundraiser "Ante up for Autism" on October 20, 2007 in Newport Beach CA, live on-line chats via the TACA website, Jenny's video blog, "Ask Jenny" and other activities to be announced soon. See her press tour and events calendar.

Jenny McCarthy is an actress and New York Times best-selling author of Belly Laughs and Baby Laughs.

------Tuesday, September 18, 2007: Jenny McCarthy, actress and author of a new book, appeared on today's Oprah television program, along with Holly Robinson Peete, wife of football superstar Rodney Peete. News of the broadcast is spreading quickly, and posts in the blogosphere are appearing faster than you can say... thiomerisol.

The first related Oprah Autism post I stumbled upon was authored by Barbara Fischkin ( An Autism Mother Rages: Oprah Winfrey's Historic Autism Program ) and it appears on today's Huffington Post, one of the world's most popular blogs.

According to Barbara, this was not just another show on autism, it was a broadcast which every parent who has an autistic child can use as a guide. Barbara hopes some philanthropist will help to provide millions of copies of the broadcast, handing them out like samples for physicians to pass on to their patients. She suggests the approach would be like handing out pharmaceuticals, except that the only side effect would be outrage.

A second post comes from the featured blog section of the Chicago Tribune and it is authored by Julie Deardorff. The article titled Today's Oprah: Jenny McCarthy on Autism opens with a sentence suggesting that parents of autistic children that have been trying to publicize a biomedical treatment approach have gotten exactly what they've been looking for, a celebrity. The blog post was submitted before the show aired, and it mentioned that McCarthy was a former Playboy Playmate of the Year. The article features some submissions from parents of autistic children.

Another blog post comes from the Daily Blabber, a celebrity gossip blog at iVillage. The post, Jenny McCarthy Talks Autism on Oprah, features a photo of McCarthy and talks about Jenny first revealing her son Evan was autistic on the program The View.

After that we have the Celebrity Baby Blog with a title that includes both Jenny McCarty and Holly Robinson Peete discussing their battles with autism on Oprah. This blog post features many quotes directly from the program, such as "I open the door and run to his crib and I find him in his crib, convulsing, struggling to breathe, his eyeballs rolled to the back of his head. I picked him up and I started screaming at the top of my lungs...the paramedics came, and it took about 20 minutes for the seizure to stop." Be sure to visit the Celebrity Baby Blog post to view all the related quotes.

The story is also in today's online version of People Magazine. Wow, I'm just discovering all these posts while preparing this article, the list is continuing to grow. The People article, Jenny McCarthy Opens Up About Her Autistic Son, authored by Stephen Silverman, mentions the title of Jenny's new book, Louder Than Words: A Mother's Journey in Healing Autism.

Signs and symptoms of Autism from Mayo Clinic

In general, children with autism have problems in three crucial areas of development ― social skills, language and behavior. The most severe autism is marked by a complete inability to communicate or interact with other people.

Because the symptoms of autism vary widely, two children with the same diagnosis may act quite differently and have strikingly different skills.

If your child has autism, he or she may develop normally for the first few months ― or years ― of life and then later become less responsive to other people, including you.

Young children with autism also have a hard time sharing experiences with others. When someone reads to them, for example, they're unlikely to point at pictures in the book. This early-developing social skill is crucial to later language and social development.

As they mature, some children with autism become more engaged with others and show less marked disturbances in behavior. Some, usually those with the least severe impairments, eventually may lead normal or near-normal lives. Others, however, continue to have severe impairments in language or social skills, and the adolescent years can mean a worsening of behavior problems.

The majority of children with autism are slow to acquire new knowledge or skills. However, some children with autism have normal to high intelligence. These children learn quickly yet have trouble communicating, applying what they know in everyday life and adjusting in social situations. An extremely small number of children with autism are "autistic savants" and have exceptional skills in a specific area, such as art or math.
