I really can't imagine what it's like to see things so differently. Very touching how your mother handled it. I love this story. I really can’t imagine what it’s like to see things so differently.

My parents were told he would probably not graduate from high school and they could forget college. Not to mention his physical challenges. My mom proved them all wrong. My brother was put in physical nd occupational therapies at a very young age and my mother discovered that he could memorize things he was interested. By the age of 4 he had memorized the stats for all of the KC Royals. By discovering a passion of his she was able to redirect the part of his brain that memorizes to another part that held the baseball stats. He went on to be an ok athlete with straight A's in high school and college AND he got a degree in teaching high school kids. Just goes to show what a mothers love can accomplish!

Personally I would not change a thing, even if I could. We see the world differently than most. But since when is different a bad thing? You write so beautifully about such a critical issue.

I think that is true for you and probably will be for son as well.
