My first born son had been diagnosed with Autism(自闭症). His speech wasn't developing right.

    He would cry for a long time for1 reason….

    My daughter who had been born two years after him was developing normally, out-pacing her brother. My wife had been 2  with just the two of them but I'd wanted another son. I wanted a(n)   3son who  would be just like  me and 4  the family name. The doctors had 5 us that the chances were one in ten thousand that we would have another child with Autism.6, a part of me was afraid. When we discovered my wife was pregnant with a boy again, I remember7, over and over and over.

    As my third born child 8, however, it soon became 9 that the doctors had been wrong. While his brother had 10 learned to talk, read, and learn, my youngest son could say only a few words. He had an even more extreme11 of Autism. Life had said "No" to my prayer.

    The journey that 12 has been a long and difficult one for my sons, my daughter, their mother, and me. It still goes on today. It 13  all of us down a path we didn't want to go, 14  it was a path that led us all to greater love and kindness. My oldest son now is a 15 of kindness who gives out hugs happily. His younger brother still doesn't16 much but has a laughter and innate joy that 17 my soul each and every day of my life.

    Sometimes we don't know why some of our wishes are 18 while others aren't. All I know is that we are all loved. And we just have to trust 19  we don't know the answers. Trust in life to lead you down the path you are20 to go.
