His mother works like a warrior. She's my hero, but my life is in this too. Even though we are 2000 miles apart.<br />She wrote on her blog (unfortunately private) about wanting to save her son. After writing three paragraphs of some of the most moving stuff I have ever read, she confessed Autism (or whatever it is) had in fact saved her. <br />This blog is what I need, to become just a little closer to such wisdom. Thanks so very much.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15840330115866846549noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6111037399323673543.post-23203104180904535982009-09-27T06:33:22.772-04:002009-09-27T06:33:22.772-04:00Harlequin:

His mother told him to settle, to quiet his giggling.<br /><br />"But I'm happy," he answered, trying to explain without knowing how to, exactly, that the intense happiness he felt at the way the movie was going was more than he could subdue and he was doing the best he could to control it.<br /><br />To those not used to his ways, the deep throaty giggles might sound menacing, even maniacal. But he's just a joyful child, caught up in the story he's watching.<br /><br />We are glad he hasn't decided he needs to express his happines in the nude.<br /><br />:)The Crowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04846997590157958766noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6111037399323673543.post-22777659878569603892009-09-21T10:00:24.248-04:002009-09-21T10:00:24.248-04:00thanks, everyone...

As the parent of an Aspergian son, I'm always interested in reading about autism.
