    Readers are enamored of Stephen King’s Holly character. Yeah, she’s cute to read about, if your ex-wife didn’t act like that. Not so fun IRL.

    I believe Holly is supposed to be autistic, and me ex isn’t that I know of, so I do NOT mean to offend. Just saying, I get the point of the meme.

    My daughter is autistic, eat up with ADHD and sensory processing issues on top. She’s 10 and I just got her and my son back after a 4.5-year court battle. That little girl is extraordinarily difficult to deal with, even with her meds.

    I’ve probably hurt someone’s feelings with my poor attempt to empathize and I’m sorry if I did. 😓
