I read about Jenny taking care of her autistic son recently and autism being her personal cause. She is doing it right, by working with individuals to find a cure versus always petitioning the government to give her tax dollars. All of this is because of her relationship with her son.

I wish more in Hollywood would take note.

I saw her on Oprah last week. Can you believe I never heard of her and I still don’t know who she is. I thought she was just a lady who wrote this book about finding a way to help her son recover from autism. She thinks he got autism from a childhood shot. From the videos her son has made a great improvement. So all the while she and Oprah are talking once in a while I’d hear, “Jim Carrey”. I was thinking that is the same name as the actor. I think he is so funny in Dumb & Dumber and the Ace Ventura movies. I know what you are thinking. But I do anyway. Then whilst I was wondering if it could possibly be him they flashed a picture of the two of them, Jenny and Jim, walking out of a building or something and I was just floored. Was that Jim Carrey?! OMG! OMG! OMG! I forget how she said they met but they were dating and she cut it off to concentrate on her son. Then at some point she felt lonely and called Jim and left a message asking if there was still a spot on his couch. They used to sit on his couch I guess. Shortly thereafter he called her and said that yes the spot is still there. She says he is this wonderful caretaker to her and her son. As much as I hate the way Oprah is with celebrities I was wishing he was there just to see him and try to figure out what kind of cure he needs. Gosh, he looks different.
