“Goodbye,Trevor,”I said to my nineyearold son as he trudged through the snowy yard on his way to school.But,as usual,he didn’t turn around or acknowledge my words.He had just been diagnosed with Pervasive Developmental Disorder (PDD),which explained his lack of expression and communication.Since the age of three,he had almost completely stopped talking.He wouldn’t even look at me and smile.
Everything had to be the same every day,including his black mittens(连指手套).No other pair would do.But this morning I couldn’t find his black mittens,so he had to wear a spare pair.He had slammed the door.
I watched his little blond head bob up and down behind the fence as he continued walking to school,gesturing with his hands.He talks to himself all the time.If only he would share a story or two with me,I thought,as I left the window and returned to finish the breakfast dishes.
Tears dropped onto the table as I wiped the spot where Trevor sat each morning for breakfast.He routinely blurted out inappropriate messages to his cereal,but I was merely the invisible robot that served him.
“Good night,I love you,”was only a rote saying that he recited each night at bedtime.
A knock at the door interrupted my sullen thoughts.“Trevor!What’s wrong?Did you forget your books?”He didn’t answer.
“Mommy,”he began.“Yes?”I whispered.I slowly lowered to my knees to be at his eye level.If I moved too quickly,I would shatter this fragile moment.
