Work

Today, was one of those mornings that did not have a good start. As Ramam's Christmas vacation is still on, I decided to sit and work with him and not let anything bother me. Luckily,this morning he was very receptive, and we spend good about an hour and half working and not realising that time had flown. Both of us were doing a lesson from one of his books. It was almost meditative, with both of us being involved and me enjoying his responses and cooperation. It was just the two of us shut out from the rest of the world, with no disturbances whatsoever.
Sometimes you think in work lies your salvation. Just stay focussed and keep going.

As I keep blog hopping,  I am constantly  amazed at the wisdom, courage and fortitude of parents who have been battling autism, in their own way, and passing on their experiences good and bad.   All of it can be overwhelming. Some of these blogs move you to tears. One such blog that needs mention is http://teenautism.com/ .                                Having handled a child with autism for 10 years, here are some thoughts I would like to share.   For one you can never wish autism away. The complexity and the challenges only keep varying. The mother with a newly diagnosed child may want to know all about potty training, while I am out looking for hobbies that Ramam can pursue.   There are going to be challenges along the way. Secondly, what works for your child be it therapy, or if you are thinking of medication...
