Guest guest Posted January 10, 2010 Report Share Posted January 10, 2010 My 10 year old dd recently diagnosed with AS has to listen to a music cd at night and a fan. We started it when she was an infant and we lived very close to active railroad tracks It would come through several times a night. There were 2/3 crossings very close together so the train would basically just lay on the horn. We moved to another apartment in another city were it sounded like the people above us were stomping all the time. The place we live now is right next to an interstate.( we need to pick quieter places to live) Anyway, she has to listen ONE song on the cd repeated all night long. It is her favorite song on the cd. The fan no longer has to be on high, but on low setting (the whole family has one in their room to block interstate sounds. We have pondered making her stop with the one song all night long, but I am not sure if it is comforting,or if it is just a habit. When we have been without power she can tolerate not having the music, but she is not happy about it. We have bought batteries for one play through the whole cd which she tolerates but is not happy with. What would you all do? Let her keep her music or take it away gradually from her?
