At the age of 11, Kenan was diagnosed as autistic. It was a relief because I finally had words to understand and explain his way of being, different from other children. Accepting his difference was not always easy. I believe that for every parent, the journey is unique. For a long time, I regretted not having a "typical" child. But little by little, my perspective changed.

Kenan lives in the present moment, he is happy with the small things: a ladybird lands on his finger. A flower that blooms.

All of these little things that we don't look at him he sees them. He does not judge people. It has an incredible enthusiasm, sincerity and total no filter. He is 13 years old, but he brings me a flower and say, " I love you, mommy ".

His vision of the world is a healthier, more just that most of the people. And when I see the world through his eyes, I can see how much it is beautiful and it is easy to love.

The people, the different children in the margins of a society that is obsessed with success, making a vision, our world needs.

I hope that Kenan live out their difference not as an obstacle but as a force — another way of understanding the world, rich and singular.

With my husband Louis, we have created LUCKY AUTIST to celebrate this unique vision. LUCKY AUTIST is for everyone : with autism, neurodivergents or neurotypical — because in the end, we are all different, and it is this diversity that makes up our wealth.
