Hi, I am new to autism and am on a journey to help my son be the best version of himself.
My name is Melissa and I am 33 and married to a wonderful and supportive man named Kevin. I have a step son Taylor who is 8 and a little boy Will who is 22 months old and has Autism. Will is in the inital stages with Babies Can't Wait. He has started Speech therapy and will start Occupational therapy soon. We have started with our DAN! Dr. Sloan and are starting GF/CF and some supplements.
Right now Will has 1-2 words depending on the day. He has some sensory issues (Tactile, Vestibular, proprioceptive, and taste). He has temper tantrams, doesn't sleep, and loves to bang his head. But he is the greatest little boy. He is great at figuring out how to turn things on and off, getting into the smallest places, and making you laugh! He has such a sweet heart!
I am trying to learn as much as possible to not lose precious time!
I try not to focus on the cause of his Autism but I like the saying.... Genetics don't cause Epidemics.

Just wanted to remind everyone that loves foggyrock that they take donations. I don't know about you guys but I don't have much money but I gave $5.00. Not much, I know but if everyone gave $5. it could really help the people who makes this website possible!! Plus they take paypal. what is easier than that!

Shannan has a ministry going here...I wonder if this would count as a tiding or a special ministry donation? none of the churches I have come across does for us what forrgyrock does...children of destiny has a ministry and takes donations I wonder if here we could do the same...keeping our dontaions where they are needed for this community would be great...I am great and will help other countries, but who really helps us and our children?
