Gavin / General Update / My thoughts

I’m heartbroken because Gavin’s really beginning to struggle again :'(

"I can't adequately express how much this kills me. As his father, it's so hard to know that he's going through this and there's very little I can do to about it"

Gavin / IVIG Infusion

Gavin had his IVIG infusion this morning and here’s how it went

"Gavin had a really good IVIG infusion this morning. He's gaining a little bit of weight so there's more body fat on his tummy to make needle placement less painful."

Gavin / My thoughts

Gavin drove me crazy with his incessant talking on what’s probably the worst day I’ve had in awhile

"At the risk of sounding like a terrible parent, I'm going to admit that my oldest son Gavin, is driving me absolutely bat shit crazy. Some would argue that's a short trip and frankly, they're probably right"

Gavin’s not doing so well emotionally but there is a silver lining

"With that in mind, I'm going to just hope for a nice balance of shit and rainbows... This is especially true in regards to Gavin's and all he's going through."

#replay from tonight’s Facebook Live. We talked about autism, parenting, current events, education, IEP’s, and even PICA. If you’re raising a kid with autism ADHD or any other disability, listen up because this is really important. Progress is not always linear and I know that it could be very easy to feel like your child isn’t making progress, especially when they are compared to other kids. It’s important to remember the progress does not always look the same for every person and every person‘s version of progress can be different and that’s OK.
