Today was a very challenging day for a number of reasons but there was also a victory

Sometimes we have to stop and reevaluate the direction we’re going in

If you’re raising a kid with autism, listen up because this is really important. I know how hard this life can be. I know how challenging this life can be. I’ve been doing this for 25 years. I have three autistic kids and a huge chunk of this has been as a single dad. One of the most important things that I’ve learned along the way is that where we are today does not represent where we are going to be tomorrow. Our kids future is not prewritten and just because we’re struggling with something today does not mean we’re struggling with it down the road. Not everyone will agree with this list, and that’s okay. These are the places and people that I personally trust when it comes to medical information. This is NOT a complete list. I have notifications turned on for those on this list and more than a few have been on my podcast. Autism Fact of the Day
