This phrasing popped out at me from Julie M. Green's memoir, Motherness, which shares her journey with autism along with that of her son. She was diagnosed at 44, while he was diagnosed as a child. Two different ages, two different people, but a bond of understanding forged forever. For any parents out there with an autistic child or grappling with a recent diagnosis of your own, you will be encouraged by this conversation with Julie.
Please enjoy the 243rd episode of Lament of Hope highlighting Julie M. Green. Julie, thank you for sharing your story as a mother living with an autistic diagnosis and that of your son's own journey on the spectrum. I hope my listeners and I see the world a bit better by knowing your experience.
