Autism in the Family: Morning’s Reflections on Growing Up with Alec


Listen Later

In this episode, we wrap up our Sibling Series with Alec’s last sibling — Morning Winterholler. Morning is the second born of Alec’s older sisters. She is 34 years old and has called Houston, Texas home for the last decade. Morning is married to Michael, and mom to three of Alec’s favorite nieces and nephews - Jay, Wynn, and Kit. Morning is actively involved in her Church and neighborhood communities. In her free time she loves playing mahjong and tennis, jumping on the trampoline, and drinking Diet Coke.

We talk about her memories, the challenges she navigated, the ways Alec shaped her childhood, and the compassion and resilience that grew from being part of his world. 

Her voice adds another meaningful piece to Alec’s story and reminds us how deeply autism impacts — and enriches — the lives of siblings.
