description | This is a story about my autistic son's surgery. Autistic patients are very common in the medical field but they aren't very well represented in graphic novels or medical literature.

Through this graphic story I try to show the challenges that parents and doctors must deal with on a daily basis when it comes to the health of autistic children. |
