A sensitive secret

I feel like Im keeping a huge secret from my sister.

So my sister and I had our babies a month a part. And lately Ive been noticing some signs of Autism in her daughter, Im a mom of 3 and have been noticing these signs more and more. Ive discussed it with the family (our mom aka granny) and she thinks Im being stupid and Im seeing things. The Signs ive notices are Head Banging/knocking, opening and closed the hands often, screaming, not asking for things, not pointing, hardly talking or saying words, hitting when you try show affection.

My sister is a VERY sensitive person and gets upset VERY quickly and VERY easily. I want to talk to her about this but I dont know how she will react. I feel like Im keeping this huge secret from her and I feel awful.
