Things are pretty hectic around here. I wouldn't say it's related to the holidays, though.
I actually came here yesterday to write an entry I would have titled "Why Autism is Destroying My Marriage" but for some reason, the words didn't come.
I still feel that I haven't updated often enough lately, so I may as well do that.
We are currently seeing 4 different therapists for Joshua. It's all in-home, so luckily we don't have to leave our home, and we LOVE them ALL. He averages 4-5 hours a week of therapy (speech, behavioral, occupational, etc).
When we're not dealing with therapies, I'm dealing with research, calling doctors, calling insurances, etc etc.
And of course, cleaning the house. This week I've really tried to get every room clean -- organized even, and did things I don't normally do like vacuum the ceilings, and clean out the closets.
Today, I finally feel like we're getting somewhere. Joshua's therapist today helped me not only apply for a few aids we qualify for -- including disability for Joshua. Yes, Autism allows you to collect a disability check to help out because if I haven't stated before -- Autism is EXPENSIVE. Once all of those are instated as well as insurance, we can see the Naturopath/DAN doctor that we didn't get to go to, and a new developmental pediatrician that she recommended. I'm hoping to get into allergy and genetic testing.
This is just ramble. It barely makes sense to me. I can barely keep my eyes open. I can barely comprehend what I'm typing.
All I can see in my head is WHY IS THIS MY LIFE.
WHY DID THIS HAPPEN TO ME.
WHY WHY WHY.
Needless to say, things haven't been great around here.
Happy Holidays, right? :/
