Molly-Raine Adams is a 7-year-old from Ireland. Just this July, Molly-Raine was diagnosed with Autism and subsequently told her mother that she was "so relieved". You see, Molly-Raine had been struggling to have the people around her understand, trying to explain that her brain must be different.

She wants other people to understand why.
