I'm not a religious person, but I have a very strong belief in God. I long wondered why my son had autism? What caused it? What did I do? Why did I do that and etc. Eventually I had to realize that my son has autism because, he just does! It's quite possible that it's the way it's suppose to be.
If my son wasn't on the spectrum, I most certainly wouldn't be an advocate. While I've always had a very soft spot for people with special needs. I doubt if I ever would have started a non-profit. Maybe this is God's way of reminding me, that I need to be a Good Fellow?
Now am I saying I'm fully in acceptance of my son's disorder? No, but I spend a lot less time feeling guilty and more time loving my son!
