This morning, I had a medical doctor look my son in the face and tell him that he could stop acting autistic if he really wanted to.
I am not fucking joking, not even a little bit.
But it's okay. Because I have reached out to my friends, and gotten connected with a new pediatrician (who has an autistic child) who is going to refer us to a new Ear Nose & Throat doctor (who has an autistic child.) Did I mention that we go out of our way to see a pediatric dentist who has an autistic child as well?
We'll take care of our own, and everyone else can go take a flying fucking leap.
