On this website it tells us how a child with autism deals with death and how they can be prepared and it helps me to understand how Ed told Christopher that his mother had a heart attack before telling her she was dead. This is because he was protecting him and to try and stop him from reacting and finding this upsetting. This makes me think that what Ed does for Christopher is very thoughtful as it would be harder to prepare for someone leaving.
