Journal Entry for May 8, 2007 Mood

Is it possible to be a little bit autistic?

This is how my husband described our son to his mother. I am upset and angry. I now feel guilty because now I haven't given the husband enough support! I am the one that has been to all of the meetings, I am the one who has been trying to explain Oskars behaviour and how he must feel at school.

I can see how this kind of situation can split up families.

It's too hard balancing all of the feelings. I know that it has to be all about Oskar. But what about us?

Is that selfish?

    yes it is possible to be a little autistic. it is a broad spectrum with many differant traits.

    No, you arent being selfish. your marriage is just as important to the family structure as your children. Children with AS/ASD crave consistancy - even more reason to keep your relationship strong.
