Deep Dark Secrets

When I found out my son had ASD I googled every variation of any term that sounded like autism could be conquered. Overcoming autism was a favorite and so of course I stumbled upon the book title and a year later I'm finally reading it. Life is hard right this moment and so this book is half read and spends its days hidden inside my tote bag purse. I bring it up at night, read 2 pages and repeat the hiding in purse routine each morning. The goal is to get a minute alone all day to read but not get caught with the title showing so its hidden under a diaper or whatever.

This is sort of a mirror scenario of my life in the closet. We have come way out by our standards by sending letters to friends and fam encoraging them to walk for our cause. We just didn't specify a dx in our cause info, symptoms instead.

Life is exhausting and trying right now. You have a special needs child that should be your max quota of trials but instead you get to deal with insurance and lack of funds etc. The payoff though is the constant and wonderful changes we get to see in our baby boy, every single day. Life is hard but its good. Let it get even better
