Words to live by---

These 3 things remain true to the "Journey of Autism". Anyone or everyone can advise you;

ULTIMATELY you MUST go with what you feel is right. "GO WITH YOUR GUT."

Once you have arrived at this decision; "NEVER GIVE UP"!

LASTLY "Ya Gotta do, what Ya Gotta do!"

GO WITH YOUR GUT

I HAVE TO ADMIT THAT SOMETIMES EVEN WITH 18 YEARS UNDER MY BELT AND ALL THE INFO I HAVE BEEN EXPOSED TOO  I FEEL VERY INADEQUATE WHEN IT COMES TO READING UP ON EVERY THERAPY AND EDUCATING MY SELF ON THE CUTTING EDGE OF "CURES" OR THERAPIES.

HOWEVER I FEEL THAT EVERY SITUATION IS DIFFERENT AND EVERY CHILD WHO HAS AUTISM IS DIFFERENT AND YOU HAVE TO GO WITH WHAT MAKES YOU COMFORTABLE.  WHAT IT BOILS DOWN TO IS BEING OK WITH WHAT YOU DO FOR YOUR KIDS. I BELIEVE THAT THEE ARE ALOT OF OPINIONS THAT IF YOU JUST TRY THIS THING OR SHOVE THIS MEDICINE DOWN OR FOLLOW THIS REGIMENT THAT ALL OF YOUR PROBLEMS WILL GO AWAY.... WHAT I HAVE COME AWAY WITH AFTER 18 YEARS IS THAT  YOU HAVE TO GO WITH YOUR GUT. IF YOU KNOW THAT SOMETHING IS RIGHT OR WRONG YOU WILL KNOW IT IN YOUR GUT, DONT LET ANYONE TALK YOU DOWN OR OUT OF IT----                 YOU DONT HAVE KNOW EVERYTHING ABOUT EVERY SOUTION JUST THE ONES THAT YOU THINK WILL BENEFIT YOUR CHILD .PLEASE DONT BE AFRAID TO TRY SOMETHING AND GIVE IT UP IF IT DOESNT WORK. DONT BE SO DESPERATE TO MAKE SOMETHING WORK  RELAX AND OBSERVE AND IF IT ISNT GOING THE WAY YOU WANT THEN---GIVE IT UP!!!!!

WHETHER IT BE A PERSONAL RELATIONSHIP OR LIVING WITH AUTISM EVERYDAY LISTEN TO YOUR HART AND MAKE SURE THAT THE MESSAGE WAS SENT BY YOUR GUT!!!!!!!
