Gavin shared something with us that came out of nowhere and caught us completely off guard. Gavin's always talking about something and honestly it gets to the point where we have to filter him out at times.  The other day, Gavin was talking to me about the random things that he always does. I had started to tune the talking out and had just about done so successfully, when I heard a name that I hadn't heard in a really long time.   I was instantly snapped back into the conversation and this is what Gavin told me.  Continued on page 2 He explained that he had a really bad nightmare. In this nightmare, someone was slicing his (Gavin's) hands open with the a large knife. That was creepy enough but it's…

Unfortunately, Gavin's had a rough day. I feel I need to stress that this wasn't behavioral, at least in the way it would have been a few years back. The first issue is in regards to Gavin's bladder problems returning today for the first time in a long-ish time.  This is par for the course with Gavin because these things pop up now and again. The first thing we will do to address this is work with the Miralax again. We had backed off a bit because everything was going well. That's all we can do at this point. As for the second issue or challenge, I think that was probably harder for me than it was for him. The problem was that Gavin required a great deal of patience…
