"Who do you think made the first stone spear?” asks Temple Grandin. “That wasn’t the yakkity yaks sitting around the campfire. It was some Aspberger sitting in the back of a cave figuring out how to chip rocks into spearheads. Without some autistic traits you wouldn’t even have a recording device to record this conversation on.” - Temple Grandin
And that's exactly what my son, Matthew is in my eyes, PERFECT. I'm so proud of him! He is progressing daily with eating different foods, talking more.... It's as if he's more AWARE of what's going on around him. I am very happy right now :-)
Matthew goes to therapy 3 times a week and is currently getting Speech therapy OT therapy and ABA therapy! The ball is FINALLY rolling! woohoo! Things have been great. Of course, we have our moments.. but they are manageable and I have faith that we will get through this.
Well I wanted to give an update because I haven't posted an entry in so long! we've been busy busy!!!
be back soon!
