Judith, thank you for all you are doing. You are wise and calm, unpretentious yet effective... making a difference for all of us.

I love it, Judith! You know I was pursuing a course of sensory integration therapy for our boy (who wore his shoes to school to day without a meltdown! :0) ) and frankly our insurance switched to a HSA, which is good in some respects, but covers almost nothing for Sam's needs. I think the providers at the SIT were shocked when I said we can pay only for three sessions cash and we won't be able to come back. This broke my heart but that's what it has come to. We are working on things at home and doing the best for Sam and always hope for the best. Thanks for your work.

I am a teacher in Texas. I am currently starting a class for Autistic students at a high school. Do you mind if I add a link to your blog to one that I am starting for the parents and students in my class?
