It is amazing how much effort it takes to do small things like take our son to the eye doctor. Something that would normally require very little thought takes us a huge amount of effort as most infrastructure, personnel and procedures are not setup with Autism in mind.
So it was an amazing win for us to go to the eye doctor and have a successful visit with our son. Not only did we confirm his vision is good but he did not have a melt down. He did not bite anyone. He did not cry uncontrollably. He did not throw up. Instead he asked the doctor some interesting questions and cooperated with every request.
My wife and I celebrated this small win last night. This is all it took to make us happy and allow us to forget the craziness that is around us these days.
Thank goodness for small wins.
