Welcome

This blog is for every parent who asked why and didn't get an answer.

Asked the questions; "Where do I go next?" "What do I do?" "Who can I talk to?" "I want to cry and I"m so scared; who is out there for me?"

Every diagnosis of Autism or Autism Spectrum Disorder is not the same nor the parents experience. But, we can pull together, share our thoughts and have a safe community to go to. That is what I envision this place to be. A haven for self, family and our children.

Much love and faith to you on your journey.

What a day!?

Life will go on.....well sometimes I wish I could exsist in the perpetual state of feeling that 2 glasses of wine offers. 

It was just one of those days.  One of those, "I've got to bull my way through it" kind of days.  It's like how am I going to do this? 

Our kids are expensive....but so well worth it.

My mission today has been balancing my business, possibility of getting a job and working with my son.  My husband is the the main bread winner but.....come on.  God, I need you right now.  That's all I could say.

My other thought was, this is my first post.  What am I supossed to say?  What am I to say?  What did I want to know as a parents when we were handed C's diagnosis.  If someone would have only said........  That is what I wanted to know.

So, that is my mission.  Giving parents a little edge, a little backing while they are going through it.  

We were totally alone.  A few words of advice from the office and threapies from the psychologist but that was it.  What do we do long term?  Are there any groups out there to help us?  Facillitate help and any other question I might have/  NO!  That was the answer/ 

That is what we wanted.   A piece of hope we could hold onto and how to we get where we need to go? 

Well.....I"m off for a by.  C just woke up (for the second time tonight, crying)  second  night in a row....I'm off.  More tomorrow.
