When I Am Doing Good, My Kids Are Doing Great

My life sometimes feels like a rollercoaster. I rise to peaks and fall to valleys.

It’s what autism advocacy truly is. It is what makes me his voice when he can’t express himself.

People like that love company.

We may struggle to help our children, but we never struggle to love them

The kids are tired, the air is cold, and we’re way too far away from our starting point.

I knew nothing about autism and nothing about being non-verbal. Hell, I knew nothing about having a son.

Sometimes my posts betray me. I snitch on myself, as the kids say.

Without them, I would wallow in my own mind during times when my own mind is the most dangerous place to wallow in.

What came next could have destroyed me, if I let it.

It’s not about words. It’s about communicating.
