    About Me

    I am 30 years old and a mom to 2 boys ages 9 yrs and 17 months and a wife. My 9 yr old has AS which is HFA. He is in mainstream elementary school and he is doing good but I wish that he could be doing better. I myself suffer from PTSD and Depression. I have been in the military for going on 11 years and am trying to get out. I have served in Iraq for a year and 6 months of training before that and my son was only 5 at the time and just starting kindergarten. He still thinks that I am going to leave him again for a long time everytime I just go to National Guard drill.

    Interests

    My interests are cross-stitching, cooking, crocheting, playing the paino, reading, playing with my children and spending time with family and friends. I am a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of the Latter-Day Saints.

    • Close Autism / Autism Spectrum

      I have a 9 year old son who has Asperger's Syndrome (HFA). He is in the 3rd grade and he has aggressive behavior problems and we had him on medication before when we thought that it was just ADHD. Since we moved to CO we took him off the medication and started taking Reliv(R) everyday. He was doing good until we ran out so his behavior is getting worse now. But I am hoping that next year I'll be able to get more of Reliv(R) for him and the rest of the family.
