Granny's gone and done it again

[Granny Hatchet]

Yes. Maybe Robert could drive with you so he wouldn't get lost. Just trying to think of what would make life better for you and him. You navigate and he steers.

He just wont. I ask him all the time to just try once.

It is so sad when people are unable to try and help themselves. I can understand being scared of driving maybe but I know he has the intelligence to do it if he knows so much about firearms.

I dont think its a matter of being smart. He is very smart. book smart not hands on. He also has other problems and maybe some we will never understand. Coordination developmental disorder being one. Cant believe I spelled that right!

Don't give up hope granny.

Tourette Syndrome (TS) is a condition of the nervous system. TS causes people to have “tics”. Tics are sudden twitches, movements, or sounds that people do repeatedly. People who have tics cannot stop their body from doing these things.

My mother had a friend who had a son with this. Talented and played in a band if I remember right. Long ago and no one left to ask now.

Not much caffeine today and that may be part of my headache tonight.

I give Robert credit for knowing what he can and can't do. I respect that. He does what he can, and in some ways, that's a lot. It's hard for "us" to understand the mind of a person with autism, especially given the fact that no two people with autism are alike. They perceive the world differently than the rest of us do, and they have to figure out how to navigate that world the best they can. Robert's doing the best he can. I'm not sure either of my kids could or would give me a shot once a month, but Robert does that for Granny. He does a lot. I think he's pretty amazing.
