Assault at the high school update

the deputy sheriff stopped by yesterday and told us he had completed his investigation. Seems a couple of boys were roughhousing in the hall way, and one pushed his buddy, his buddy hit our daughter and then she hit the locker. The deputy says he believes that the boys are sincere in their admission that it was an accident. So as long as they apologise, we will let the matter go. We are asking the school to cover all of her medical expenses. Today, I am taking her in to get a shot for the pain. Taradol, which is an intra-muscular injection in the gluteus maximus. Wish her luck! Tweet #fighting4answrs

Well, our David is going, going, gone… he has been running around all morning. Still going, trying to get him to settle down. Meds are not working just now. So gave him his lunch medicine and some lunch, we will see what the afternoon brings. When he can’t get settled, it makes homework impossible. Well heck, it makes everything just about impossible. I couldn’t even get him to settle long enough to sit down at the table for lunch. So he stood and danced during his lunch. I wish that I could bottle even 1% of his energy level. I would never again be exhausted from my Lupus or Fibromyalgia. I would never again feel like a sluggard who is lazy because my medicine isn’t working. His attention deficit, hyperactivity disorder, ADHD, is a powerful motivator for anyone to want to excel. But it also is hugely limiting in that

I didn’t create this video, I am just sharing it here. Having a child with Autism, I could not imagine what their life would be like if they cou;dn’t speak to us. Listen and watch one non-verbal child’s amazing story.
