Guest guest Posted January 8, 2008 Report Share Posted January 8, 2008 Thanks Sondra...you made me feel so better.... I know that must have been way more difficult...I only have one on the spectrum and it's hard, but only imagining you and your 4 kids all on the spectrum...I sometimes take Xanax for my anxiety,and maybe I should take more in situations like this...I only take it when driving or riding in the car because i have really bad anxiety in that situation, but I almost feel trapped and like I am being suffocated in this situation when my daughter is out of control...I don't know...I am not being negative just honest...and I get so stressed out about it...Thanks.. sondra wrote: sorry you hads such a rough and challenging morning and yes as had many of them when my childrens were of little and had of tears too because of the expectations and the law says have to send of them to school but how do a mom on spectrum get of 4 kids ready for school that are of also on the spectrum and each having thier own issues. it was like of a domino effect if one was upset it caused the rest to go out of sync and by the time I to getted them all off to the school buses and such I to locked ofmy doors and sat with my blankets and just sat for a long time to recoup of the drained mental and emotionals states of me. Sometimes I to worked it off by to clean and clean and organize but mostly I to just say and rocked or watched of my TV more for the noise than the actions of people but that was of then. Now all of then can get of ready by of themselves with minimal prompts and or cues and all are of in their teen years. One day will just share of a one day of my life back then of the kids. many will be of to read and relate to it all and some will be to laugh and some will just wonder. but like jon and kate say this is a crazy life but it of our life.

Guest guest Posted January 8, 2008 Report Share Posted January 8, 2008 I never heard of that story before...but it brings a good point...thank you... sondra wrote: I to hope you feel safe to vent and being honest is of being human in emotions. it isof okay to cry of tears as many autism or not have of a bad day. When I tothink of my won issues i to remind of self life could been of more intense in challenges and remind self of the loving caring family of the little girl who is maybe age of 7 by now of the show a girl without a face and she had of themost severest form of that disorder ever recorded and survived and while she does not have a face to look into from parents perspective they look farther and are of able to see their daughters soul and this is of how they have always seen of her from day one. Do they do all they can to recreate of her a face..... yes but she will never have a typical face but a more funcitonal one in the senes of being able to use her eyes, mouth and such for her own dignity in this life. it is not for htem that they seek a face to look into but a face to help her be all she can be in this life and providing of her the tools, treatments, therapy to assure she is of a successful in this life.
