Originally posted 2022-11-15 15:20:42. Now first off let me say this, I am not for or against this lawsuit or any for that matter. I saw a partial commercial on tv while watching the witness statements in the Darrell Brooks sentencing. If you haven’t heard of this then that is for an entirely different post. Now, to the point of my post. On a commercial break I was only able to see a portion of…
Originally posted 2019-10-16 07:00:26. I am speaking to parents of special needs children/adults. To the parents who are with their kids and pretty much your life revolves around their care. To the parents who often wonder what will happen when the day comes and you pass on. Since my momma’s passing, my bio father’s passing and well my brother too I have been thinking about it much more. My daughter has her life. What if…
Originally posted 2016-08-03 20:48:44. Through my years I have gone through things, done things, put myself in situations I shouldn’t have, gone places I shouldn’t have, yet some things I wish I could speak on. There are some things I honestly want to talk about but I can’t. I am pretty sure there are some of you reading that know what I mean. You know there are some things you don’t think you could ever…
Originally posted 2016-05-30 19:18:54. Autism… A huge broad term with a lot of variations. I have always wondered if it was just Dusty or do others have the same issues with their autistic child? Dusty has gotten to the point where he will lie about the simplest of things. It is odd when you have someone who has the cognitive and developmental impairments like Dusty has, yet can pull the wool over your eyes on another.…
Originally posted 2014-06-08 17:29:26. It is Sunday morning here in the Carter home. Daughter volunteered at a disabled/special needs baseball game on Saturday and well the rest of us were at home. We took the opportunity to literally do nothing. But that also means since nothing was done yesterday it has to be done today. Bad thing is this pale skin Irish girl will have to do some serious covering up when I go outside…
Originally posted 2014-06-03 13:47:39. Finally! I have someone going to bat for me. Thank Goodness because this is getting so frustrating. Plus when you get bills for $1900.00 for a hospital visit that resulted in nothing for you it gets even more frustrating. One of them has already gone into collections but what do you do? They call me and say they need a certain amount for it to be a payment arrangement but I…
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,…

Originally posted 2017-08-19 14:39:16. My son has anxiety. It is far more than just a bit of worry that can be soothed away with some reassuring words of encouragement. It plays a big part in his life, and it is important we take it seriously. His worries seemed to grow as he was growing up. But at the time we didn’t realize all the different behaviors we saw were driven by his anxiety. And the more…
Originally posted 2019-02-06 08:24:03. This kid of mine ❤’s his burritos. Anyone else’s autistic child or autistic adult have a massive love for burritos? He got a California burrito – my husband says because he saw it had french fries in the description. His main menu consists of hot dogs, burritos, more hot dogs more burritos… I mean he does eat other foods but for the most part that is what he asks for. Maybe…
