Guest guest Posted June 20, 2001 Report Share Posted June 20, 2001 "On top of this, we moved into a new house over the weekend, and I'm 30 weeks pregnant with another daughter whom I'm fearful will also have some kind developmental disorders since these things tend to run in families. " - Hi! Just a note of encouragement! We have 4 children. Our 2nd child, 1st dd is the one with autism. The rest of the children are fine.

Guest guest Posted June 21, 2001 Report Share Posted June 21, 2001 Hi , Sorry to hear about the diagnosis. How mild/severe is your daughter? (What is her name, by the way?) You did catch it early on. You were also lucky to find a doc who would dx at that age - - mine would not, even at the age of 2.5, I guess he's rather old school.... By Stanford - - - I take it you are in the Bay Area? I live in Pleasanton. You are 30 weeks pregnant. Now is hardly the time to worry about the baby inside you who is as healthy as can be right now. You can do nothing more than keep her healthy while in you, and love her just like you loved your 2 year old daughter. While this may " tend' to run in families (and I should know as I have fraternal twin girls, both with some degree of autism), it is not common to find a family with more than one child with autism, girls at that. So rest easy for two reasons: 1. chances are, it's not, and 2. only God knows, and there is NOTHING you can do about it in the meantime, so you need not heed another moment's thought on that. It looks like your doctor has put you on the right track. If you are in the Bay Area, then I also would advise you to call the Regional Center. They have some outstanding Early Intervention Services that they can provide for your daughter until she is age three. We didn't get to utilize any of that, and I am kicking myself for it now. Let me know if you need a name or number. I feel for you, and know how you feel right now. Just hang in there. It doesn't get right side up anytime too soon, but one does get accustomed to being upside down, and in time - - - the upside down will feel like right side up, you'll see.

Guest guest Posted June 21, 2001 Report Share Posted June 21, 2001 --Forgive me, this is a bit off the subject, but when i asked some medically specific ?'s about the immune system's interaction with a pregnancy, specifically in my miscarriages, the reproductive endocrinologist raised his eyebrows and went into a long explanation, intentionally way above my head, about immune dysfunctions that have long since been disproven, totally unrelated to my ?'s. I find it hard to believe he was threatened by my knowlege, i certainly wasn't being arrogant...Wow, glad i'll only have to deal with this guy for a short time!

Guest guest Posted June 26, 2002 Report Share Posted June 26, 2002 Great letter--thanks so much. Peacefully, Jeff Sell Hitt * * Sell 4309 Yoakum Blvd. Suite 2000 Houston, TX 77006 www.HittSell.com (fax) JZSell@... (office) (cell/v-mail) jzsell@... (home) (unknown) HERE IS THE COPY OF THE LETTER I SENT TO MY REPRESENTATIVE IN THE HOUSE. I am a special educator for 12 years. I have taught children with a wide range of abilities and disabilities. One of the most difficult obstacles special and regular teachers face today is how to gain the knowledge and support we need to teach students with Autism. The number is increasing dramatically, as you may know and the schools are inundated with young children needing extremely specific skills. Your average teacher is in need of support. Some districts are hiring Autism Specialists to help out but they will need funding. HR 4728 will enable districts to support these children families and teachers. If this does not pass, it will send a very cold hearted message to those committed to helping teach children on this very difficult road to a life worth living. If IDEA is to remain under-funded, conscience would dictate that help should come from another source....the passage of HR 4728. I will look for your vote on this and for any additional support you may be able to give. Thank you, sincerely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 30, 2002 Report Share Posted June 30, 2002 Dear , I strongly empathise with your emotions in your letter and would like to know more about you. You can find out more about me at http://hope-tlc.autistics.org. Being from UK I am not familiar with what IDEA stands for - although I just read some bits about it on the net. In principle it sounds good. How will that be put into practice ...I do not know.

It is great to hear from someone who has actually entered public school AFTER receiving their certification in ABA. That is usually the point where most LEAVE public schools to go into private practice. Glad you have decided to work in public school and join this list! We are glad you are here!

Guest guest Posted February 19, 2003 Report Share Posted February 19, 2003 Amy: Bless your heart--we are excited to have you!!!!!!!!! Peacefully, Jeff Sell Autism Society of America--1st Vice President Chairman--ASA's Gov't Relations Committee www.autism-society.org (Houston Office) (cell/v-mail) www.HittSell.com JZSell@... (unknown) Hello Fellow Lister's, I am new on this list and I just wanted to introduce myself to everyone. My name is Amy . I am living in Austin, Texas. I am a certified Associate Behavior Analyst (BCaBA) and a Assistant Speech Pathologist (SLP-A). I am currently working at Round Rock ISD as a speech and behavior therapist. I am also consulting with some in home programs both privately and through the school district. I have been working with autistic children for seven and a half years and I worked in the Horizon program at Capitol School of Austin for two years before I accepted this position at RRISD. At Horizon, we were mentored by Kelle Wood BCBA, an associate of Dr. Vince Carbone, and we also had the wonderful experience of working directly with Dr. Carbone during the school year. I have also attended Dr. Carbone's level one and three workshops. I love these kids and really enjoy working with them! Thanks for letting me introduce myself and I am excited to be a part of your list. Thanks again, Amy K. _________________________________________________________________ The new MSN 8: smart spam protection and 2 months FREE* http://join.msn.com/?page=features/junkmail <http://join.msn.com/?page=features/junkmail> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
