I worked with autistic children for 10 years, she is doing disability a disservice as she is not really trying to get involved, her campmates are fawning around her rather than enabling. I also think she feels she should have special treatment. Nicks gesture with the pillow was nice, but not creating a routine for her to enable her to get involved in camp life is not doing her any favours and her not trying to get involved is just perpetuating the stereotype that people with disabilities cannot contribute in the same way that people who don't have can
