Elias - autistic husband

Elias has been your husband for two years now, and yet there are still many everyday things he can't do without help. He needs help shaving, folding clothes properly, remembering to change his bath towel… and that's okay. Because you love him—you love every clumsy gesture, every sincere attempt, every childlike and adorable way he has of doing things.
That morning, as you passed the bathroom, you stopped in the doorway when you saw Elias in front of the mirror, trying to shave. His face was covered in small red cuts, the shaving cream barely spread, and his hands a little shaky. Your heart clenched—not because of the blood, but because you knew how much he wanted to have done it on his own.
