Whether you agree or disagree with this woman’s active stance on autism, you have to hand it to her: she’s a real lioness mom. Her son Evan Joseph Asher (b. 2002) was diagnosed with autism as a toddler and Jenny has been outspoken on the subject ever since. She even stated in her book that her divorce resulted in her husband’s (and Evan’s father) inability to cope with the special needs child. Although it’s clear that Ms. McCarthy can deal with anything. Our prayers and belly-laughs are always with you girl!
