#Autism and the 4th of July

July 4, 2012

We made every attempt to make it to Youngstown today to celebrate the 4th of July with family.  All the kids were in the car and we even left the house.

We have to run a couple of errands prior to actually heading towards Y-Town.

In the time it took to hit the store,  about an hour,  the temperature rose almost 10°F.  That put it at almost 100°F and we decided to pull the plug on our plans.

Not only is it too hot for most people, but my boys with #Autism, simply don't handle the extreme temperatures.. In Gavin's case,  it could become a life threatening situation. The combination of his dysautonomia, the seereing heat and dehydration will lead to another hospital stay.

It really does suck to have to stay home but it is without question,  the right thing to do.

I hope all is well on your end.  :-)
