It's not until I'm five minutes from the destination that I realize I could have listened to something else.<br /><br />Autism truly is a marathon. It never goes away. It helps to live for the next respite. I'm also thankful to see how far Pamela has come from those days where the only way she communicated frustration was by flinging herself on the floor, kicking and screaming.walkinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05046468024103932112noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5005421880877128774.post-74134700568263279792012-07-09T12:37:27.689-07:002012-07-09T12:37:27.689-07:00Hi Karen, you are very lucky that your husband can...Hi Karen, you are very lucky that your husband can read you like a book!

As hard as it is to live this life sometimes, by being honest about it, you are bringing comfort to others walking a similar path - to know others feel similar things sometimes is often what makes living our realities that much more bearable.<br />thanks for your words.<br />take the pockets of 'you time' as often as you can. it is the best defence against the negatives that can sometimes overwhelm.DQhttp://www.ishouldhavecalledhimcalvin.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5005421880877128774.post-9568469684039037812012-07-08T14:55:55.111-07:002012-07-08T14:55:55.111-07:00I hear you, Di.
