Shine Avi Know how of Autism !!
Autism moms often go to great lengths to sacrifice…emotionally, financially and otherwise, to help their children make progress. We know there is not much room to make mistakes. Our kids are already starting off at disadvantage so we often feel the overwhelming need to get it right the first time.You Know No Boundary When It Comes to LoveAutism moms love their children beyond words. You will often hear moms say that even though they do not like the autism, they love their children. And it is true. No matter the behaviors or difficulties, these women openly express their deep love of being a mother and how much they love their child with autism.The autism moms I know accept their children for who they are yet never stop helping their child achieve their goals. Love truly is patient and kind and there is no boundary or conditions.Love is…raising a child with autism.Many autism moms face challenges every month with grace and support each other in a way I have never seen. When one of us falls, as we often do, these women are there to help pick each other up, brush us off and set us back on our way. There is no way to describe this “sisterhood” of autism but I feel we are all probably changed by the diagnosis. Are we better? Maybe yes, maybe no…depending on the day or who you talk to. Sometimes we are strong. Sometimes we break. We are fighters and protectors of our families and children.In the end, autism moms inspire me to be a better person..to try make the world a better place for our kids. To continue the fight. To get through another day, month, year. Whenever I feel the least bit sad about things, I can easily find another mother raising a child with autism who can show me “strength”. She can show me the path to help me fight another battle. She can lift my spirits and show understanding that only an autism mother could do. Yes, they do indeed rock!
