They discovered that autism is a condition that affects the way a person's brain works. It can make it harder for them to communicate and understand certain things.

But Alex also learned that autism doesn't make someone less special or less capable. In fact, it makes them unique and talented in their own special way.

Alex decided to help Ava feel comfortable and accepted. They made sure to use clear and simple words when talking to Ava, and were patient when she needed more time to respond.
