Hi Dannielle, its April. Our sons sound like they might have alot of symptoms in common. I dred going out of our little community, going to wal-mart is usually something else!! Not much size difference in Devon and my 12 yr old!! Devon is 75 pounds and very lean, no fat, just muscle and bone. He wears a size 5 1/2 in reg mens, but due to the width, we have to special order. Is your son delayed by much? Devon just had evals done, they figure about 36-38 months of age developly(PT/OT) output in speech is approx 34 months, but what he understand is 7 yrs!! He looks like he is 8 yrs old, but acts like a 3 yr old, very hard in public!! One day at walmart Devon had a huge outburst, I was trying to get him to the car, he was yelling, hitting, bitting etc. The looks some people gave...then some old man drove by slowly and said to devon"you better be nice to that momma, she loves you" and that was enough to break his consintration, he broke out of it and was okay, still
sweating etc. But I thought if only every stranger could do something like that, or ignore it it would be great! Devon feels all the strange stares and it makes him freek out even more.
What do you do for allergies? Hope to hear from you soon!! April

Hi its Danielle in Ga. My son Shane who is 5 has sensory
intergration but he is also autistic as well(we just found out in
Jan.)so I can not help a whole lot. Also we have awful allergies
with asthma to go with it so I am feeling you on that one. Oh yea
does any one have trouble with there childs vision Shane has to wear
glasses... +5 in right eye and +6 in left eye. Didnt know until we
went for I 5 year check up. Does anyone have trouble with
the "outside" world looking at your child and thinking they
are "normal" or ask why they are behaving the way they do;as if they
were older than they really are. I get alot of that. The favorite
question is if my 8 year old and my 5 year old are twins due to
there sizes (they are the same height ha ha). Well I too hope all
is well. If you can help thanks ahead of time. Danielle and Shane
Don't pick lemons.
