MJ's Breakthrough!

[MommytoMJM]

Well, MJ is (mostly) over her fear of the characters....if we approach it right! So far the handlers and the characters have been awesome with her when we explained her autism. Here are the characters she has met in the last three visits (days) we have been at WDW.....

Mickey (3x)
Pluto
Terk
Jane
Tarzan
Tarzan Rocks! Cast
Timon
Chip and Dale Rescue Rangers
Jasmine (2x)
Aladdin
Abby Duck from Chicken Little (2x)
Chicken Little
Jessie (2x)
Woody
Buzz Lightyear
Snow White, Aurora, Cinderella
Pocahontas (2x)
Meeko

Watched Mike and Sully but wouldn't meet them

This is completely AMAZING.....I never thought she would get to this point....Every small step is such a big deal for us!

MommytoMJM, that is great! I am so happy for you, and so happy and proud of her! I know you must be so proud of her too. This is just a miracle that she has decided to warm up to the characters!

What great news! I'm sure it's just as exciting for the "characters" as it is for her ( and you and Andrew) to see her enjoying their interaction.
