My son is 2 years old recently diagnosed severe Autism Spectrum Disorder level 3 by the DSM5 criteria. He was also labeled At-Risk for Intellectual Disability (mentally retarded). Just a few short months ago he was basically non-verbal and now look what he can do. What could be mentally retarded about that? Amazing. I am so proud of my son and I was very inspired to share this video with all of you.
It is important that you know:
-There is always hope
-It is never the end
-They always know more than it appears
-They are worthwhile individuals
-Never give up on them
-Fight for them
-Love them intensely
-Protect them
-Believe in them
-Encourage them
-Advocate for them
Never stop, never. No matter how hard, no matter how sad, no matter how afraid, no matter how dark, no matter how confused, no matter how distraught. Never stop. Never let “them” tell you that there is nothing you can do. That simply is not the truth. I will battle to the bitter end for my son. Always. Until my last breath.
