Are you alright?" asked his mother lovingly."Yeah, I'm okay. How are you?""Not bad. I've got some bad news.""Oh no. What?""Hazel Fairfax has e-mailed to say that NHS funding can't be found to get you into the support group for people with Asperger's with emotional problems... so you're going to have to just have direct payments support instead.""But they promised!""Pft! I know. You can't trust a single word these people say. Have you checked your post this morning?""No," replied Luke. "I'm going to go. I don't feel like talking." He ran down stairs to open his mailbox. A letter had arrived. He leaped back up the steps and closing the door settled on his sofa to read it. As he tore it open he saw the Greater Woecaster Police logo. What did they want know? But at least they were not writing to accuse him of anything more. Instead the letter was informing Luke the local police were initiating an Autism training exercise for the officers. It also contained the news that a local social group for people with Asperger's syndrome and Autism was being set up.
