About Me
I am married and have 2 children. My youngest is 2 and has autism, he also has developmental delays in speech and sensory integration. Each day has it's challenges. My oldest is 10 and has dislocated lenses in both of her eyes. The left eye is much worse than the other. It causes visual problems for her and runs the risk of blindness.
Interests
I enjoy sewing, reading, crocheting, music, and taking walks with the family along with the 2 dogs.

Support Groups
Close Autism / Autism Spectrum
My son is 2 and is a high functioning autistic child with sensory integration. He also has a speech delay from being tongue tied. He has been in early intervention for 6 months. We just joined a group therapy class once a week. I love the class it helps get me out of the house.
Treatments
- Behavior Management Too Soon to Tell
- Just started with a behavior therapist.
- Early Intervention Somewhat Helpful
- Each day seems to be a different challenge. So it is hard to find what tools to use for each day.
- Occupational Therapy Working / Worked
- Therapist has given us tools to help with certain behaviors.
- Picture / Word Schedules Somewhat Helpful
- Helps to show him what we are doing next.
- Play Therapy Too Soon to Tell

- Helps for communication with us.
- Speech Therapy Working / Worked
- It is helping him to communicate better with us to tell us what he wants.
Close Hypothyroidism
It has been almost a year since I was told I have a hypothyroid. I have had my meds upped 4 times and am less tired but still can't seem to loose weight. It is driving me nuts.
Treatments
- Synthroid Somewhat Helpful
- It has helped with the tiredness but not helped me loose any weight.

My son is 2 and has sensory integration. He is needs to push cars in circles all the time. He will touch hot things and not realize it can hurt him. He always is on the move and rarely sleeps through the night for me.
Treatments

- It helps to calm him down to get him to sleep.
