I Have a Sibling With Autism

We are identical twins and were given the aspegers label, we have always hated that as it has singled us out at school, as we got older we come to understand we are different but we support each other in getting by in the world . There are two people who understand us the other twin and our mum, she is awsome raised us on her own and we know now how hard that was and is for her. The doctors and whatnot may understand what we are but the y do not understand Sammy and Bruno and never will but as long as we have each other we are ok.

thank you for sharing this story. I have 3 kidz with autism and its very hard on me. Not a lot of people understand. I always hear about some elusive supermom that could do this and do that, and so I should to. Not understanding how hard it can be with 3. And I'm the major one fighting for them. I'm not a single mom, I'm married, but I still do most of everything by myself.
