Gavin was playing with Elliott and for whatever reason he decided to touch Elliott's butt. Elliott was very upset by this. Gavin freaked out and had a meltdown when confronted. I don't think it was a sexual thing but more a poor choice of places to touch him to get his attention. Regardless of his intentions he has to understand that it's not ok to do that. How do you get someone to understand something that complex when they can't understand the most basic things in life. Posted from WordPress for Android

We heard back from Dr. R and Gavin goes in next week. I don't think I'm going to make it that long. He is driving me crazy. He never stops talking. He keeps tellling Elliott Richard inappropriate things. He has taught both Emmett and Elliott to hit themselves when they get angry. Right now the sad/unpleasant truth is Gavin is sinking the ship. We don't like to speak those words. However, not speaking those words doesn't change the facts. Something has to give and give soon. We are thinking about swithing from Dr. R to someone at Akron childrens because Dr. R is spread so thin that I am starting to question why we are still going there. He is amazing but it is impossible to get into to see…

I love my kids I really do but they are even more difficult to manage when they are sick. Autistic kids go into a sensory tailspin when they are sick. The stuffy/runny noses, coughing, headaches and ear infections can cause sensory overload. Then factor in being home from school and having their schedule turned upside down. They will be home tomorrow again and I feel like I'm going to lose my mind. I need them back in school. We need a break. I think God should make it so Autistic kids never get sick and if they do never all at the same time. Posted from WordPress for Android

Lizze has gotten sick. Really it was a matter of time before we were all sick.  I am the only one that hasn't got sick this round. With everything else Lizze has going on getting sick is a pretty big ordeal. It usually hits her alot harder then it does everyone else. I hope this passes quick for her so she can feel better. She also contributed 1.6 miles to the Fit 4 Autism cause. She took Maggie with her which (if you know Maggie) doubles the workout. I'm so proud of her and I hope she keeps it up. Walking is much harder for people with Fibro due to the nature of the disorder. It was probably a very painful walk but she pushed through. Go Lizze Posted from…

We consider any situation that requires immediate professional intervention for the safety and wellbeing of any member of our family. This is very common with Gavin because he has extreme behavioral issues. They can appear suddenly or over time. Currently Gavin is in a crisis state because he is losing control over his body movements again. He is also experiencing audio and visual hullucinations. These are all things that point to neurological problems or medication issues. He is also manic right now as well which just makes everything much more complicated. That is what we consider to be a crisis situation. Posted from WordPress for Android
