Logan likes to play with hotwheels cars, flags, and things that make sounds. He loves eating stuff with his hands, like pizza, or french fries, and he loves eating plain M&M's. One thing that he does a lot is what my mom calls 'snarfing' her soda... when she's not looking he will take her soda and drink it as fast as he can. He likes to watch Blue's Clues and other cartoons that have sounds of someone being *cartoonishly* whacked. This includes any sort of Looney tunes and most Disney cartoon movies, particularly the older ones. The only way we can calm him down is by putting in the same movies over and over. Not only does it get boring, but if he's not interested then you have to check up on him every minute or so. We don't have the biggest video collection, so now we have to watch very, very, very, very ,very boring movies that I have seen a million times just to satisfy what he wants to do. It's very hard to figure out what Logan wants, sometimes. If we don't do what he wants, then he will scream and wake my dad that works night shift so that we can barely make ends meet. I know that my parents do everything they can for all of us kids, but Logan by himself is quite a handful.

My parents have been looking for ways to get Logan the help medically that he needs, but right now we are living in a very small city that doesn't have a lot of resources available to families like ours, with a disabled child. There are autistic research places in different parts of California that my parents want to get Logan to, but we have an old car, not in any condition to go more than just to the store and back. My mom dreams one day of getting an RV, for taking Logan to wherever his doctor appointments are. My parents have both told me that we can't afford an RV at this time, so we do the best for my little brother that we can with what we've got. I love my little brother and there is nothing in our area that can help my little brother, Logan. He only goes to school for a couple hours during schooltime, because he is just not able to handle any more than that right now. Most Autistic children have very limited attention spans. My parents work with Logan every day, trying to teach him simple words, such as pointing at his chin and saying 'chin', or holding a ball and saying 'ball'.

He is standing next to me while I type, (being quiet I might add) and I know that all those people who might know or maybe even has or had a kid brother that has anything like what I'm talking about you know what I mean when I say I want what is best for my brother, and getting him to the best doctors in the country - if that is what he needs, I want him to have the chance to be as 'normal' as a kid can be.
