We found out this last year that BOTH our boys are autistic. Hubby had wondered, and I'd denied its possibility for years. Some days are beyond chaotic, we rarely have a day without a meltdown - I'm both glad and worried that school is starting. Glad, because now we'll have a few hours without a growling, stomping dinosaur. Worried, because no way will those people ever do my kid justice in his education, treatment, socialization, etc. I know I can't - I run off and hide many days, in my office. So YES! Support is definitely needed - and I'd love to help out if I can. Totally – there is definitely a need for that. We found out this last year that BOTH our boys are autistic.

So YES! Support is definitely needed – and I’d love to help out if I can.
