This is the voice I heard today as I took Eric for his blood work. Blood work that comes from having Absence Seizures which comes from him having Autism. The little voice that rears his head when I look into the eyes of my young prince as he tried to hold back the tears and I tried to explain to him why once again they have to stick a needle in his arm which he hates to much to draw his blood to put into the tube.
Hey Bridget are you there its me Autism knocking and tugging at your heart strings as I hold back the tears and I listen to him say mommy why are they doing this to your baby your only son. Even the nurse Carmen who loves him so much and the Dr's brother how calls him his best friend have to look away to keep from crying as I say to him its a part of the Autism honey, but dont worry I am here to hold you before during and after
I will never leave your side and seemed to cancel the fears and he told Carmen to go ahead and take the blood he is a big boy now. Hey Autism I know you are here, you have been since 1998 a constant reminder that you will always try to find ways to keep him and other boys and girls whose lives you have enterned from acheiving their God given goals in life.
But Hey Autism its me Bridget and guess what you cant have our kids, we will fight you till the bitter end, you can not take over their minds, hearts and souls. We stand over a Million Strong, we are fighters, we are mothers, fathers, brothers, aunts, uncles, siblings, grandparents. Hey Autism its me Bridget and guess what our kids may have you
BUT YOU DONT HAVE THEM.
