My son is 3 years old and was recently diagnosed with Non verbal Autism in April 2013,he is a true inspiration to me in every way, he has taught me an understanding of his world and how to enter it,he has given me the gift of unconditional patiance,there is a strong love and bond between us like no other,he shows such beautiful empathy and love towards myself and his family. Days can be hard but ever so rewarding,as he says a new word for the first time,or holds my face and looks deep into my eyes touching my soul and heart. My son is more than just an inspiration....he has kept me strong,kept me going,kept me alive after losing my husband his daddy to suicide two years ago....my son takes my hand and leads the way out of the darkness and takes me into his colourful world of Autism, He is my son,my world, my life, my heart, always and forever, i thank God daily for blessing me with such a perfect son <3 xx
