Not sure, actually. Nate's life is always a surprise & never a surprise. Always a surprise, because we never know what is going to be next. Never a surprise, because we always know, something is going to happen. When someone asks, " How's Nate?", it's hard to answer, unless they know what Asperger's is all about. I will basically talk about things as they come to mind, because there is no beginning, or end, & Asperger's is difficult to explain, mostly because although, there are no two people with Asperger's who are alike, they have very similar symptoms, which are expressed in different ways with each person.
Well, Nate just called, after midnight, he is on the phone now, which is very typical of him. When Nate needs to, or wants to talk, he calls, no matter what time of the day. He has no concept of,
" Is this a good time for you? ". Most of the time he calls, it is just to chat, which is fine, except that most of the time, this takes place, as tonight, after midnight.
Nate has his own language that has taken me yrs to learn & I am still learning. What our daughter will say in 15 min, will take Nate an hr, to say. Following his thoughts is difficult for many reasons. I will explain this further on my next post. Now I have to figure out how to kindly get him to hang up, so that I can go to bed. TTY tomorrow, or rather, later today, lololol.
