Dad decided to no contact with my disabled son

Hi, my son's dad has just decided he wants no contact with my beautiful son with Autism. So sad. We had a brief abusive relationship which thankfully ended over two years ago when I finally found the strength to save myself and the children.
Please tell me that I can get through this. No one to talk to in real life as I really struggle with trust issues and have no friends, only close family x

My ex has Asperger’s and was also abusive and my younger daughter displays ASD traits so I understand how you feel. I wonder if your ex may also be on the spectrum? It doesn't excuse his behaviour of course but it may be something to bear in mind when dealing with him.
Ultimately if he was very abusive then it may be better if he does have no or limited contact especially as a child with ASD will find his behaviour even more scary and confusing. My kids have limited contact for max one night at a time which works for us.

Hi, thanks for replying. I don't think he does have ASD I think he's just a self centred narcissist who doesn't deserve the right to even know his son.
He will regret his decision and change his mind in time as he has done this several times now unfortunately x
