“How the mind gears itself for its environment, she thought. And she recalled a Bene Gesserit axiom:

"The mind can go either direction under stress—toward positive or toward negative: on or off. Think of it as a #spectrum whose extremes are unconsciousness at the negative end and hyperconsciousness at the positive end. The way the mind will lean under stress is strongly influenced by training.” #QuotsyDec18

no one questioned her presence there, as though she was already an assistant of some kind. Second, Mel began barking orders at her as if she had been trained in this clinic. “I‘ll need a sterile pack of 4x4 gauze, sterile water, not saline. Cameron? Want an antibiotic?” “I don‘t think we need an IV, but I‘ll go with cephalexin, broad #spectrum IM. She had a tetanus shot last summer but give me some Valium & lidocaine. I‘ll get a suture kit.”

One thing I always try to point out to parents of a child newly diagnosed with autism is that the good far outweighs the bad. In fact I wouldn't even say there is anything bad about it. Difficult yes, but not bad. And sadly the difficulties come mostly from neurotypicals wanting square pegs to fit in round holes. My son (13) has autism, more specifically Asperger's, and he is amazing.
