Emmett’s sick

I was up with Emmett most of the night. At some point he spiked a fever. This may explain why he been so upset the last day or so. Maybe he just hasn't been feeling well as that would explain a lot. He actually hasn't been sick in over a month, so this is pretty good for him. Hopefully he feels better soon. - Lost and Tired Post by Wordpress for Android via Nexus S 4G with out the use of proper editing tools and auto-correct.

Holey socks……WTF

Alright, Gavin has almost 20 pairs of socks and yet this happens. I don't understand how he does this. So we asked him yesterday and this is what happened. Turns out he's doing this on purpose. He grabs his socks and twirls them around his finger. Eventually he wears them thin and they break through. Not sure what to say to that but this is what I did say. I explained to him that if he continues to destroy his clothes on purpose then he will have to use his own money to replace them when the time comes. He assured me that it would stop. We'll see....... - Lost and Tired Post by Wordpress for Android via Nexus S 4G with out the use of proper editing tools and…

Do your kids sleep like this?

I was wondering if any of your kids sleep with there eyes open. I'll be honest with you, it creeps me out just a bit. Is this common with ASD kids? Maybe just Gavin? - Lost and Tired Post by Wordpress for Android via Nexus S 4G with out the use of proper editing tools and auto-correct.

Gavin is sick AGAIN

Gavin is sick AGAIN tonight. I don't know what the heck is going on. We are calling the Gastro first thing in the morning. I think they are going to do a second bowel prep. They said that he was so backed up that a second round may be needed. Something has to give because he can't keep going on like this. We need to get him some relief. Hopefully we can do that tomorrow. I wish I knew WTF was going on because he should not be getting sick like this everyday....

The July 4th party

This morning Elliott and I went to my parents house for brunch. Everyone else stayed back due to not feeling well. Elliott and I had fun and brunch was really good. Here are a few pics of the morning. - Lost and Tired Post by Wordpress for Android via Nexus S 4G with out the use of proper editing tools and auto-correct.

Confessions of a special needs father 7/04/2011

This post was not easy to write but I hope it benefits someone out there that may be in a similar boat and needs help. Hopefully, my honesty will help you to realize that you are not alone :-) I need help........   I have been going through some things lately. I have, for a while now, been.....preoccupied with my own mortality. It has become more and more difficult to manage these feelings.......actually, more like fears, anymore. I feel like my life is over or I'm dying and it's a HORRIBLE feeling. The rational side of me knows that my life has really only just begun. However, there is another part of me that chooses to embrace these feelings of despair. I guess embrace is the wrong choice of words...more like…

Somethings wrong with Gavin

Gavin has been vomiting all morning. We arent exactly sure why either. I suspect that it has something to do with the bowel issues. I'm thinking that the bowel prep wasn't enough to clean him out. The doc said that if it doesn't work we have to call them and do it again. We are going to have to do that first thing in the morning as I don't think they are in the office due to the holiday. He seems to be feeling better and so I think we will be find, at this point anyway, waiting till the morning. Nothing is ever easy here.....sigh - Lost and Tired Post by Wordpress for Android via Nexus S 4G with out the use of proper editing tools and auto-correct. Please…

My heads about to explode

For whatever reason Emmett has been screaming ALL morning. When I say sreaming, I mean ear piercing and headache inducing screaming. I have no idea what's behind this but we need to figure it out. I don't know if he's in pain or just overwhelmed. This is when I find the speech and language delays to be the most frustrating. I want to help him but I don't know how because he can't tell me what's wrong. Helpless doesn't quite say it....
