My Brother - By Zach

Having a sibling with a disability definitely has it's ups and downs.  You have to give them a lot of extra attention and help them with more things than you would a regular person.  The main thing a "special" person needs is lots and lots of tender loving care.  Sometimes it's really hard to live with someone of such status.

My brother is autistic. One of the hardest things to do is to go out in public with them.  If everything isn't just right for them or one little thing is out of place they could have a huge meltdown right there.  When this happens it puts lots of stress on you and them.  It makes you want to just go home.
