Lizze posted something I her blog tonight. I know it took a lot for her to open up and say the things she did. Please read it and see what a mother of 3 special needs kids can feel like….

Death of a bouncy house

7

I regret to inform you that as of 12am this morning the bouncy house is no longer with us. I was running around last night charging batteries and gathering blankets when I noticed. She just didn’t look the same. Even from a distance I knew something was wrong. She was all slumped over in the corner. My instincts kicked in and tried to resuscitate her with mouth to mouth. Despite my best efforts More >

Ice Storm 2011 Hits the Lost and Tired Family

1

We are4 getting pummeled by a MASSIVE ice storm. I have never seen one this bad.  Lizze and I stepped outside a few minutes ago and in the 5 minutes we were standing out there we witnessed trees literally falling apart and crashing to the ground. We keep hearing things that sound like cannons going off. There are trees (big ones) just falling to pieces. It’s actually getting scary because people More >

 

Cleveland: Here we come….

Lizze just got off the phone with Case Western. This is where he needs to go for weekly therapy. Akron Children’s Hospital HIGHLY recommends this program. If Emmett would benefit from this then we will have to figure out a way to make it work. It takes us about 1 hr and 2- minutes to get there.

I don’t know how this is going to happen especially with the van. How do you put a price on your More >

Crash Room Progress…..

6

Tax return came in last night and so II was able to start setting up our crash room. We don’t have much (thanks to the money pit that is our “new” van) but we got a 6×6 bouncy house. We also got a ball pit. We already had a trampoline and a tunnel. This will hopefully help Emmett to decompress.  It gives him a safe place to do the things that he needs to do in order to “ground” himself. I will More >

Processing…..The first 24 hours…

5

So after a long, restless nights sleep (especially for Lizze) I have begun to process everything. The first things that pop into my mind is how are we going to survive this physically, emotionally and financially. We’re barely surviving as it is. I know nothing fundamentally has changed but the dynamic has. Before today we had hope (admittedly little, but hope none-the-less) that Emmett would More >

Any Questions?

0

My friend Stuart Duncan had a great idea the other day. Why not open up the blog to questions…

What better way to spread Awareness then dispel any misconceptions about Autism and answer any questions anyone might have about raising children on the spectrum. So here you go. I will take questions about anything pertaining to the topics discuss on this blog and answering them as honestly as I can. More >
