About the author
Christian Gajewski
4 books1 followerNearly thirty years spent in the places where the human body breaks and gets repaired: first as an Italian military professional, then for fifteen years at Humanitas Research Hospital in Milan, now in the surgical department of Hospital Vithas Lleida in Catalonia, where he serves on the Patient Safety Committee.
At forty-eight, autism arrived as a diagnosis and twice-exceptionality as a description of his cognitive profile. What looked like a diagnostic endpoint was actually a starting point: the diagnosis rewrote not only his reading of the present, but the entire arc of his past.
He writes for those who have always thought they were the problem, and now begin to wonder if they were not.
