blogging the second time around
Okay I will have a go at blogging again. This time I hope I make an effort to habitually update.
Why? I created this blog site a year ago in the hopes of chronicling (is that a word?) well putting into writing what has been going on with my family and still remain anonymous :-p
As you can see, I failed to progress after the first post and why is that?
1) Writing composition is not one of my great points.
2) My English is not that good
3) too personal
4) when you blog comments are fair game /free for all I was not ready for no use blogging with the comments turned off.
Nothing much improved since last year, so why am I trying again?
So parents with an autistic child will know that there is HOPE :-) Early interventions works. And our children progress. My son does and hard work and team work really pays off. (I'm emboldened to come out in the open to encourage parents, cases of murder is murder, suicide is suicide, it's too drastic and too final it cannot be undone.
This started because I have a son who is autistic, let's call him ReyMey. He is 9 years old, and a Grade 3 student, mainstreamed.
It started because ReyMey is much improved, nobody believes he's a "classic". Other parents of autistic children (in sped school) think I'm lucky ReyMey's has only mild autism but that is not true. Would that I would like to leave it as such but I feel that by doing so would dishonor the efforts of all the Occupational Therapists, Speech Therapists and SPED teachers who worked with him and it would not be fair to them.
So what do I tell my co-parents, it's not true when ReyMey was the age of their kids, his condition was worse. And they look at me with disbelief (like get out of here!! liar) but it's true, ReyMey improved because he worked very hard along with the schools/therapists to find the correct way to process information in his brain in that it lead him to communicate, learn and understand what happens around him.
I, and this is my opinion, happen to believe that brain is crosswired, I also happen to believe it's a combination of his brain's bad wiring along environment triggers that compounds and complicates the issue.
I am a "silent lurker". I read a lot of posts on autism, always reading but never contributing a comment. Some folks are so eloquent at saying what they mean maybe if I practice like this I can get better.
Next post would be the history to current events of ReyMey, that lead to finally this 'coming out of the closet' and then finally just chronicles of joyful updates because our life gets better and better.
