Guest guest Posted October 14, 2008 Report Share Posted October 14, 2008 Hi , I am sure you have received a great deal of responses to your email. I would like to reach out to you as a mother with a child diagnosed with autism in 1996. My son is now 14 years old. I can tell you it was a hard journey but it is possible to get through it with peace in your heart. I am here for you.

Guest guest Posted October 14, 2008 Report Share Posted October 14, 2008 Hello, Hi everyone, I'm new to 's List & I was hoping to connect with other parents and find some support, possibly offer some. I'm a single Mom raising a 2 yr old w/Autism. Except for the occasional help from my parents, we are on our own. We live in Pembroke Pines which I guess is considered south broward. My son is not in school right now, I've decided to wait until he turns 3 when we have more options, so for now I'm determined to get him as much therapy as I possibly can. I am a student & I work part time @ night, so my free time is limited but I would be most greatful if anyone could recommend any support groups for parents of autistic children. Also we had a horrific experience @ the doctor this past weekend & I'm really in need of a new pediatrician, preferably one that has experience w/autistic children & is hopefully not too far from our home. Any advise/support would be most appreciated. Thank you kindly, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 14, 2008 Report Share Posted October 14, 2008 : Welcome to the group. Dr. Marcos Akerman on Hallandale Beach Boulevard is very good with our kids. I live in the area with my kids, one of whom is now 14 and high functioning autism, and would be glad to orient you to what is available in the South Broward/Northeast Dade area for our kids. Feel free to contact me off the list. Hilda Hilda S.

Guest guest Posted October 14, 2008 Report Share Posted October 14, 2008 , Welcome to the group. You may have already heard of this but if not I would encourage you to look into CARD at Nova. They have many different groups and support programs. Hello... Hello, Hi everyone, I'm new to 's List & I was hoping to connect with other parents and find some support, possibly offer some.
