Thanks for sharing these intimate insights with us. It is truly appreciated. <BR/><BR/>I sent the link to last years post to my children's godfather, a physician who has two autistic sons.

The one you did back in April or May about how as a child he disappeared and all of you were in panic and your mama was standing outside in her bra was written so well and with humor and love.

I'll bet there aren't any or darn few on the black family experience with autism, and you have a nice perspective. <BR/><BR/>Take care, KitKit (Keep It Trill)https://www.blogger.com/profile/03027769872237001801noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10755833.post-6799748072028445522008-07-05T17:27:00.000-05:002008-07-05T17:27:00.000-05:00I hope you and your brother are having/have had a ...I hope you and your brother are having/have had a great time this evening.<BR/><BR/>Thanks for changing my perception of autism over the past year.<BR/><BR/>All good things to you Black Lady.SagaciousHillbillyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09511441325695460501noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10755833.post-79361151505846596872008-07-05T16:19:00.000-05:002008-07-05T16:19:00.000-05:00I was linked to this entry from a friend of mine o...I was linked to this entry from a friend of mine on livejournal, who knew it would mean something to me.<BR/><BR/>my brother adam turns 21 this year, and while i am the oldest in my family, so much of this post touched me and reminded me of so many moments from my own life. while i'm blessed that adam is verbal, albeit in rather interesting, oft-metaphorical ways, i still struggle to keep a dialogue and connection with him now that i'm 30 and married and 1500 miles away. but like your brother, adam's smiles can make such a huge impact, and he has taught me so much about life, and the mentality to have in my own experiences, good or bad. like you, i've made the commitment to be the family member responsible when the inevitable happens to my parents, and with that responsibility came the revelation that i wouldn't trade having him for my brother for any amount of money in the world.<BR/><BR/>happy birthday to your brother. i wish him all the happiest, as well as the best to another sister out there who is just as blessed. <BR/><BR/>abbey/ magicwondershow on livejournalAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10755833.post-54190765127457640792008-07-05T14:19:00.000-05:002008-07-05T14:19:00.000-05:00Beautiful post.

Now 14, tall and goodlooking, we go places and he does "autistic things" and people look... but he is so normal within the context of his family that none of us really see it... unless he gets really agitated and then someone walks over and calms him down. They are pure people like him and Bill, there are things about the harshness of life that will never tarnish them, and this is a special blessing...<BR/><BR/>All the best to you all, and enjoy the day...The Bear Maidenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08219416611385201896noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10755833.post-38919769809755999062008-07-05T12:09:00.000-05:002008-07-05T12:09:00.000-05:00Thanks for sharing you brother.Happy Birthday Bill...Thanks for sharing you brother.<BR/><BR/>Happy Birthday Bill, many happy returns.William Meloneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10883000944415604097noreply@blogger.com
