Obviously this week has been hard, the passing of Luna is still very raw. Went to the cinema on Tuesday that ended in a meltdown. My mother wanted a family get together to mark my late fathers 80th birthday today, it’s been winding me up all week, being with family is often hard work. My family aren’t very understanding of autism, anyway, I arrived with my wife, my mother had lit loads of candles, she then said, “ don’t worry, I’ve made sure they are non scented,” the meal was okay, I was then told that cheese and biscuits had been bought for me as they know I won’t eat desserts. I felt quite strange, obviously no more strange than normal. They made a kind effort for me, I think they are actually starting to see that I am autistic. Just wanted to share something positive.
