About Your Autistic Family Member:
My youngest, Christopher, was diagnosed end of February 2008. I had a feeling for a long time that not all was quite right with him and had a feeling it was autism as I have a godson who is autistic too and so i saw the signs. He gets frustrated, he has an uncontrollable twitch especially when he is concentrating, he only likes routine, can't speak very well, has an awful temper, is obsessed with doors & garden gates being shut and licks things like doors, people and other things. But he is very bright with computers, clever with numbers & letters and is very loving.
Favorite Thing To Do With Your Autistic Family Member:
Christopher loves me reading to him. We love to visit the local farm & the park. He loves to learn his phonics & alphabet.
Thing You Hate Most About Autism:
The frustration & temper. Not being able to understand what my son says sometimes

Good 6 months !!!

Hello all !!!
Apologies again for big delay in updates. since my last update in december, a lot has been going on. The Major thing that has happened is that i found out at new year I am expecting twin boys !!! They are due in about 6 weeks time. Christopher is so happy about the twins. He talks to them all the time & loves it when they kick & laughs seeing my tummy move. One of the positive effects that the pregnancy has had on Chris is that his temper has literally disappeared whi

She is so good with him & is always trying to find new things to help him. Chris also has a teachers assistant called Sharon who does a lot of one to one with him. Miss Lynton has made a lovely visua… Continue

Meeting.

Last week I finally had a meeting at Christopher's school with the SENCO officer , Ruth, Dr Shorthall from the Carol Kendrick unit & Chris' teacher Barbara.
First of all it was great to see the guilt written all over the teachers face as the penny finally dropped to her that there is 'something wrong' with Chris. I was asked to say by Ruth what I am not happy with at the moment with the school. I said that one of the things was that Chris had never had any work displayed on the wall in his c… Continue

AAAAAARGH!!!

I have just been to drop Chris off at Nursery & his teacher was asking how things are. I said that the school would have the diagnosis report very soon so the SENCO officer at the school can sort stuff out finally.
I told her all about the problems we are having at home with his temper & violence. She started saying 'Well he's not like that here!' I explained to her that when he comes to nursery its like he is in a bubble & keeps everything inside him till he gets home then 'bang' it… Continue
