Why Lions? Because Eli loves them.
Elijah was diagnosed with Autism at the age of Two and a half years old.
This is a story of my life with my beautiful family.
I will share the happy times, the sad times, and everything in between.

Just to Clarify....

My previous post is not a feel sorry for me entry. It is something that I have been given to deal with.
Last weekend I went out with the girls for the first time in years. It was really nice and I appreciate the chance to do that. This is no more then an Autism thing though.
Eli's behaviors have gotten worse and I am just in the next step of adjusting and poor Carter is in the middle of it all. Remember I said that I was going to get Eli in with a psychiatrist at Children's Mercy?
Well, they called me back and referred me to another behavior clinic because they didn't think they could help my son. This even is with the fact that I told them I got them through a patient reference! Another child with autism gets all his medications taken care of through them and yet they can't help my son? If Children's Mercy says they can't help me then who can? It's not like they are referring me to a different specialist or they have to long of a wait list, they simply just didn't want to deal with it. So yes, I am mad and frustrated. I'm tired of doors being closed because of money, or the long wait lists, or simply because my child is one of thousands dealing with Autism and they simply just don't want to deal with it.
