Welcome back. I would not do this without your permission; however, would you allow me to pray for your precious little girl? She is so beautiful. One of my sons did not talk until he was 16 months old. He just pointed and got what he wanted I think. He did however, have a very high IQ did well in everything he tried as an adult including finishing in the high 1% on his College entrance exams and did well all through school.

wonder if you could use pictures
to help her be able to communicate, like if she is upset, you could show her a few pictures, like one of food and one of a hug and one of the bathroom and she could choose depending on what she needed... course you might have to have a lot of choices... but maybe...just a thought

I wondered about you
I am sure the answer will come but the waiting for it to reach you must feel tough. In the meantime, and always there is love.

Spitfire, sometimes I feel so helpless when I hear stories like these...
I was a preschool teacher for 20 years and I still don't have any advice for certain situations. I just know you will get through this! You will get the help she needs. Your little girl is very lucky to have a mom that is willing to help her day after day. Some parents don't care, or just give up!
My thoughts are with you, my friend. You have a precious little girl, there.

gapcohen (Mal), you bring up good points.
Unfortunately, she won't be able to start kindergarten for another 3 years b/c she was born Sept. 5th...4 days short of the cut-off date. Although, we hope to get her diagnosed and in therapy in the next few months. Oh, but I know it doesn't hurt to speak b/c she sings and talks CONSTANTLY! (Just not TO us or WITH us.)

thanks for the suggestions, jesse jean.
I don't know how much finding my B-family or history would help Mariah but it would provide some answers. I did not have these problems as a toddler and neither did my husband. Oh, but I certainly do believe in hypno therapy and would LOVE to do it someday when I have the funds...for other reasons, too! Thanks so much for your input and comments!

Ginnieb, yeah, we're working on that
She'll be tested for everything. I've thought about Asperger's, too. I hope it's not any type of Autism.

she is a beautiful and seemingly happy girl. I know that once she enters public school, she'll have a diagnosis and the therapy that she needs. Could it be something physical? You mentioned that she doesn't want to chew her food - do you think that the act of chewing might be hurting her? Maybe it hurts to speak, too. So frustrating when you're little and can't explain what's wrong. Keep us posted....Mal

She's gorgeous, Young Miss!
And my guess is that she's so far ahead of the rest of us we have to work to keep up with her.
It will work out -- you will see to that, because you are a jammin' Mom who more than lives up to the name we know you by here!
Glad to see ya back. Take care and post more pics!

Oh, honey...
This breaks my heart. I have witnessed the struggles of Autism, and although I have never been through the ordeal myself, I know the pain it can bring. But, there is always hope that it is something else. I will pray for you all...
Don't ever give up!

How sad for her! What a gorgeous child! I hope there will be a way to get her to therapy! It's so heartbreaking when a child is locked inside and can't get it out! I will be praying for your sweet baby girl! sam

It will she is precious, she will get it together, you will find the method, person and all that is necessary. I am sending you hugs and with your permission I will pray for both you and the lovely doll.

she's beautiful
and u r blessed to have her, and she is blessed to get to spend so much time with a loving and caring mother. there has to be a way for you to find out who your birth mother was, where you were actually born, etc, perhaps free legal aid could help, or perhaps even the missing people's networks, have you thought of writing to Nancy Grace, telling her the importance of the childs health could depend on finding out your biological family history? there are ways, it may take some time, but there really are, i know this may sound crazy to you, but perhaps even a hypno-therapist could help you find out about your past. It is really amazing what hypno-therapy can do, and yes, I do know for a fact that they can do this, just make sure that if you go this route, you find a certified one who knows exactly about regression, maybe you don't believe in this process, but desperation sometimes calls for desperate measures, and I am not talking about your child being hypnotized, I am talking about you being hypnotized to try for regression therapy, which could bring out memories you may remember from your birth. It has been proven that this is possible. good luck and keep that love going that you display in your article and writing about it as a great way of venting, I know, I do it all the time.

FIRST WELCOME BACK AND WHAT BETTER PLACE IS THERE FOR
encouragement and love support and a place to vent.
And what a beautiful child and yes, so clever smart.....the food thing....my grandchildren had big problems with this as did their Daddy. It is a touch feel thing.....it does go away and weird as it may seem, rolling and crawling around the floor can help with all this. once or twice a day try it with her...it worked in our family.takes some time and patience but then all these therapies do.
Good luck darling and keep on writing here where real care for you awaits.

She's a little doll Spitfire!
Have they talked about Asperger's at all? I don't know a lot about it although my cousin's son has it and he's very bright but has trouble in social situations...it's a form of autism but a highly functioning one. The most important thing is getting help and it's very obvious that you'll get it for her. She's beautiful!
