This blog was created to share the experiences we have had with our son, Nicolas.

Nicolas was born on February, 26 - 1999. When we found out he was autistic, it changed our lives, for the better, forever. We have never been the same since then. We can only thank God for having him.

We wrote a book telling our story, in Portuguese (our native language) and now I'll try to share with you our experience in English.

You're welcome to embark on this journey with us.
