Hi, I just joined with this club. I have a 4 1/2
year old hf and hyperlexic autistic son and a 2 1/2
year old girl on the spectrum. My husband is ready to
leave for 6 months with his job. We recently moved here
and I don't have any support system here and there is
no respite in the area. My parents think they will
"grow out of it"...still in denial. My son has a bad
gut problem. We have tried everything....gluten casin
free...tomatis method...supernuthera...swimming with the
dolphins...alternative medicine therapy...etc... He has meltdowns
frequently and is highly destructive. Sometimes he just
cries all day. When I ask him whats wrong he just
repeats whats wrong. If I say do you want to go outside
or are you hungry yes or no. He says yes or no. If
you don't get it right...look out! He broke our
computer in a fit of rage...bites...kicks... He is really
loving and wants friends but doesnt know how to make
them. He will hit them...instead of saying hello. I am
just worn out now and could really use a friend who is
going through similar situation. Thanks for the vent
and sorry about the long post...Tracy
