For me, love and connection, it's unselfish. You really look at the person and you see them for who they are and accept them right where they are. And you want the best for them. You're proud of them. You love them. From here, you love from here more than you do from the outside. And that's the way I see is true love. That's what I see.

The thing is, when you have a non-speaking autistic, they can't tell you unless you ask the questions. That's the thing. You can feel it. I just felt like John Paul had the purest soul. He just loved unconditionally. There was no ego attached to it. And he would say to me, you know, if people were ugly or unkind to him, he would say, they don't understand. Just love them.

And I just, I felt like their love was so pure, his and Lily's, and his love was so pure. There was nobody he didn't want to go up to and high five and then lean in for the kiss, you know. It taught me some, I loved the way people responded to him. I could tell so much about someone the way they responded to him because he went in with just this pure heart.

and he could handle them not loving him back mama had a hard time with it you know because we don't want our children to be hurt you know but he didn't get hurt because he saw the bigger picture he saw that nothing here really matters love is what matters everything else is superficial nonsense And that's what I took from John Paul. He just, he was brave.

No, it was fabulous is what it was. Because you worry about your, I mean, All autism moms worry about their children. Are our children going to have love? Are they going to be cared for? You want them to experience everything you got to experience. And what I loved was, first of all, everyone was at Hirsch Academy where he went. Everybody loved this romance that was blossoming at the school.

For sure. So we would call, Lily would come over and our house, if you've ever been to a non-speaking ASD3 autistic person's home, what you notice is that there are a lot of modifications to the house. So I love it because I love to have autistics over because our house is set up for it. So Lily would come over and Karen come over and Lily might be caught in a loop so they can get caught in loops.

And John Paul, they might walk by and he may pat her on the head or he may come up and stim a little bit. And then she might be stimming on the windowsill. And then he would go upstairs. She would be walking, doing her thing. And then when they would finally go home, John Paul would spell That was fabulous. Because, you know, it was just they knew what they were doing. It was their connection.
