		<description>It takes great courage to share personal feelings about a sibling who may appear "less than perfect".  I commend you for recognizing the great value your brother has to offer.  He does not see the world, in our terms, but he has insight into your "full heart" because you opened the door and let him in.  Thankyou for sharing.
