Helô nunca precisou que Arthur fosse igual aos outros para estar ao lado dele. Ela simplesmente ficou. Ano após ano, fase após fase, do jeitinho mais bonito que uma amizade pode ser: com presença, carinho e verdade.
Talvez inclusão seja exatamente isso: não enxergar primeiro a deficiência, mas a pessoa. Não ensinar apenas a conviver com as diferenças, mas crescer entendendo que elas fazem parte da vida.
Que toda criança com deficiência encontre uma Helô no caminho. E que toda Helô continue mostrando ao mundo que amizade de verdade não vê barreiras!

I spent two years being the low-maintenance girlfriend. I never complained when he canceled plans, never asked for fancy dates, played video games with his friends, and never demanded a title. I thought if I showed him how "easy" I was to love, he’d choose me. For my 25th birthday, he bought me a $10 gas station gift card and took me to a drive-thru. Two months later, we broke up. Within six months, he was engaged to a woman who had strict boundaries, demanded high effort, and wouldn't settle for crumbs. That was the day I realized: being the "cool girl" doesn't make a man value you it just makes it cheap for him to use you.
I'm not married, but these are the few things I've learnt:
1. Never ever share the secrets of your past with your husband. He will use them against you.
2. Marry a man who is financially capable and responsible.
3. Don't give up your job or career for any man.
4. When he shows you what he's like, don't try to change him. He'll treat you exactly how he feels about you.
5. Don't make him your whole world. Have a life outside him.
6. Don't let him know you can help him financially. He might resent you for that.
7. Do not move into his parents' house, except your house is under renovation.
8. Don't marry the person you love, marry the person who loves you.
9. Don't get pregnant because he wants a child. Get pregnant because you are ready and capable of it.
Bonus: Study yourself and patterns. Do what works for you.
