I do think that these two are going to be enough for any Mommy to handle.
and yes I still go into shock when something reminds me that I was told that I loved my child too much.

Sam,
Keep reading and you'll see what else has happened. I am kind of looking forward to when I have the story up to the present time. Then I can post as things happen. Thank you so much for reading this blog. It means a lot to me.

Dang it! Wrong button!
What I was trying to say is, I remember when we were trying to figure out your senior superlative -- you said I got it right, but I think I got it wrong -- I think you were "Toughest Hombre Wot Ever Walked" -- coupled with, "Most likely to be awesome Mom of the Millenium."
Of course, you are pretty hilarious, so class clown is also spot on...
Take care and keep these coming -- it's great reading and I know it's got to be helpful and insightful to a lot of folks.

You certainly had a lot going on at one time. I think I would have been very uneasy with the circumstances, too! But I hope we discover that you hang tough and do all in your power to succeed; the storytelling gives it that flavor to date for me! sam

Not sure, Taps. I'm thinking that...
maybe it's due to all the processed food we eat and all the added hormones, antibiotics and additives to livestock and milk. I also wonder if it is just seemingly increasing due to more awareness and research.

Kabu, I can't believe someone who is supposed to be a professional
would say something like that to you!
Glad you walked out on that idiot!

The incidence of various forms of autism definitely seem to be on the rise. Why is this? It seems that everyone knows someone with an autistic child.

SpitFire...pregnant with another baby and still having to
try to deal with and understand what was going on with Mariah (plus a hubby who wants to be a cop)....I don't blame you for stepping around the pediatricians at this point for more "substantial" help..

Re: Hi, Monisha,
No, not really, I just hate when professionals and some of them with their children of their own, don't seem to just get it nd actually listen. Mine is obviously on the other end, but still they had her seen and tested for other issues an when she did not come up with anything that actually fit the category, they labelled her as backward. For starters with my first issue with her, they did not listen and said she needed speech therapy, when speech was the last thing she needed.I know there is something up with her and that she is not behind, but what I do with her is talk to her, or get her to talk to me.
I really hope they listen to you about Emmie and b the way the reason why I read your blog is because I love kids and how fascinating kids are as individuals and later on as they live a become more of themselves, how the different parts ourselves reveal themselves.

the frustration of not getting an answer ...I was once told that i was a
Hypochondriac Mother who wanted a sick child....a councellor told me that I loved my child too much.....I just walked out on that one.....He is a man now with a family and sucessful business and everything ended wonderful i just pray that all the years of work ahead of you can end well too.

Hi, Monisha,
It sure sounds like you have your hands full! Thank you so much for sharing this and for reading this blog. I have a feeling you know a lot of what I went through and what I'm currently facing, too.

Hi
Hey, I hope they listen to you. I know mother's instincts and I hated when people refused to listen to me about Elizabeth. They would say she is behind, but my instincts told me there was a lock at the back of her mind and once we find the key to unlock it, she would match their ideas of what is normal and you know what even with that lock still there, she is actually proving to be a little more intelligent as she is talks and demonstrates that, by insisting on specifics. The other day when she was being punished, she was told she was going to come into bedroom and lay there on my bed. Little Miss Huffy, told them all, "I am not going into mummy's room. I am going into my room and am going into my bed." She will also tell me things like, after being taken out by my ex, "I forgot o behave myself mum." It just feels like you're hitting a brick wall when all these professionals want to label your child as something you they are not or even worse when they brush off your concerns as a parent, with inane and obvious suggestions.
