Man if life don’t have a funny way of throwing you a curveball… My son’s neurologist of almost 20 yrs is closing his doors!! Ughhh Hopefully they can refill all his seizure medications temporarily to tide us over. Time to find someone new ASAP It doesn’t help that our primary care doc is out all week either. 🤦🏼♀️

He sees me crying, mad, frustrated, etc I can’t escape. All the while trying to repair hurricane florence damage. I have been going to my local massage envy every few weeks for a deep tissue massage. It has helped tremendously from a physical standpoint but not really helped mentally. I need an…
You know… there are times when I truly just can’t with my son… Here he is 30 years old and sometimes he acts like he’s six years old. He has been throwing tantrums like a little kid. He has been going outside in the backyard, dropping his pants/drawers and peeing 🤦🏼♀️ I can only imagine the horror if any of my neighbors were watching. Granted we do have six foot fence but my neighbor behind…

At least that’s what we tell our husband’s 🤣 We went to Lowe’s home improvement store, twice, just two different stores. Then Home Depot. Walmart, twice (2 different stores). Food Lion, grocery store for those who aren’t familiar with them, 2 of them. Let’s not forget Sam’s Club. While in the second Walmart we went to customer service…

I lost the only father I have ever known, my children lost the only grandfather (or better known as Pa to them). I am going to say he is now reunited with my mother. I haven’t even come to terms with my mothers passing and now this. I feel hella guilty because I haven’t even been able to return to my mothers house since she passed and now this. I feel left behind. My momma,…

Autism Spectrum Disorder affects millions of people across the globe, and there is a real need for new medications that can help with the social and behavioral challenges associated with it. A compound found in hemp and cannabis, cannabidivarin (CBDV), shows great promise in preclinical animal models of autism spectrum disorder and is currently being tested on 100 children. The main areas that CBDV shows potential for are: improving sociability, motor coordination, and short-term memory,…
