We used to fight over that last piece of cake or pizza, just like any other set of siblings. Because he is so non-verbal, he can't tell us what he's feeling, but his eyes are expressive and sometimes we have conversations where unlike some autistics, he holds eye contact and I can see that there is a synapse that he just can't bridge. A look of utter frustration because he can't find the word to help me understand him. And like me, he's 'sensitive' that will have to be another blog!
