    My son Sean has autism. It breaks my heart when I think about all the milestones in life he will miss. The other day he asked me if he can drive my car, he is 15, I had to tell him not now we will have to see. He will never be able to drive. I have a 13 yo DGS that lives upstairs, he will be driving in 3 years. I dread the day I have to explain to Sean that he can not drive yet Gabe can even though he is younger.

    Sorry for the pity party. I usually don't indulge. It's late and I'm tired.
