44 to tell him about school and fridship , romance and work , love and everything else . That how I started to write these 45 , I hope that Sam would 46 them sooner or later .
However , that expectation 47 when Sam showed aigns of autism (自闭症) at the 
age of two , He had actually stopped talking before the discovery of the signs . He 48 to communicate with others , even the family members . That was 49 for me but didn’t stop me writing on . I realized that I even 50 now to tell him . I wanted him to 51 what it means to be “diffenet” from others , and learn how to fight against the misfortune he’ll 52
as I myself .. his grandfather ,did ,I just 53 if I could write all that I wanted to say in the rest of my life .
