“A sensitive tot may be just that — sensitive. But one who shrugs off hugs, say, or freaks when the volume is too loud on the TV may have sensory processing disorder, or SPD. Ditto a child who seems to crave stimuli. Either way, there’s plenty of help to be had.” – WhatToExpect.com

My nephew has SPD. He is an absolutely amazing boy. To see how he interacts with walls, stuffed animals, etc, just wants me to understand what’s going through his exceptional mind. I can tell he sees things, and feels things on a completely different level than I do. He truly is one of god’s gifts. Food for thought: Why does something that is different than the “norm” have to be a disorder. I prefer to call it Sensory Processing Enlightenment. When I pick up a stone, or look at a brick wall, I see what is on the outside. He however is enlightened to a different level that I can no comprehend.
Wow Phil, I sooo wish there were so many more people like you on this Earth. Your nephew is a lucky little boy to have such an enlightened uncle!! You truly are a shining beacon of light on this path that most see as dark. We also have an SPD little guy who is 9 that most people call “weird” or “strange,” but to us he has the most beautiful soul and outlook on EVERYTHING he encounters (LUV tour comment about his wall interaction, LOL). Everyday our wish is for the world to see through our “Little Weirdo’s” (he giggles when we lovingly call him this) eyes as he is the one who teaches us on a daily basis what true beauty lies beneath all the ugliness. Thank you so much for sharing your story as I can promise we aren’t the only SPD family moved by your kind and understanding words.
