"On top of this, we moved into a new house over the weekend, and I'm 30 weeks pregnant with another daughter whom I'm fearful will also have some kind developmental disorders since these things tend to run in families. "

Hi! Just a note of encouragement! We have 4 children. Our 2nd child, 1st dd is the one with autism. The rest of the children are fine.

I didn't mention that. I gave my youngest 2 hib shots. This is when he

lost skills and started self stimming and prompted me to start the diet with

him. I would recommend no vaccinations also.

Hi ,

Sorry to hear about the diagnosis. How mild/severe is your daughter? (What

is her name, by the way?) You did catch it early on. You were also lucky

to find a doc who would dx at that age - - mine would not, even at the age

of 2.5, I guess he's rather old school....

By Stanford - - - I take it you are in the Bay Area? I live in Pleasanton.

You are 30 weeks pregnant. Now is hardly the time to worry about the baby

inside you who is as healthy as can be right now. You can do nothing more

than keep her healthy while in you, and love her just like you loved your 2

year old daughter. While this may " tend' to run in families (and I should

know as I have fraternal twin girls, both with some degree of autism), it is

not common to find a family with more than one child with autism, girls at

that. So rest easy for two reasons: 1. chances are, it's not, and 2. only

God knows, and there is NOTHING you can do about it in the meantime, so you

need not heed another moment's thought on that.

It looks like your doctor has put you on the right track. If you are in the

Bay Area, then I also would advise you to call the Regional Center. They

have some outstanding Early Intervention Services that they can provide for

your daughter until she is age three. We didn't get to utilize any of that,

and I am kicking myself for it now. Let me know if you need a name or

number.

I feel for you, and know how you feel right now. Just hang in there. It

doesn't get right side up anytime too soon, but one does get accustomed to

being upside down, and in time - - - the upside down will feel like right

side up, you'll see.

--Forgive me, this is a bit off the subject, but when i asked

some medically specific ?'s about the immune system's interaction with a

pregnancy, specifically in my miscarriages, the reproductive

endocrinologist raised his eyebrows and went into a long explanation,

intentionally way above my head, about immune dysfunctions that have long

since been disproven, totally unrelated to my ?'s. I find it hard to

believe he was threatened by my knowlege, i certainly wasn't being

arrogant...Wow, glad i'll only have to deal with this guy for a short

time! Makes me appreciate my reg. dr's even more!! Maurita, mom to

Hello, My name is , I'm 26, and was just diagnosed with Stills Disease.

My story is very similar to most of yours. I don't know to much about the

disease yet, just what i have read here. I go for my first follow up exam on

the 30th. I'm hopeing the Dr will be able to offer a lil more information

than what he has already, which has been nothing. This site has been very

helpful not only for me but for my family, in understanding what I am going

through. In reading a lot of your stories i just sat and cried. I would

really love to just talk to someone, so if anyone has time my aol screenname

is Bla5861480, feel free to IM me.

My family is very supportive of me. , there are so many people here

experiencing the same pain as you and all the questions. It really helps to

have so many people going through all that you are going through as well. We

have bad days yes....but there are good days too and that is what this group is

all about..support, understanding, trust, knowledge & friendship. If you are

having a bad day, talk to us. There is usually someone always around since we

are all from different time zones. It is very comforting to know that you can

talk to friends at any hour of the day. We love to hear about your good days as

well. It keeps the " hope " here and keeps the energy moving. I am a single mom

of 35 years old with two boys, and trying to manage this disease, work and be

their mom can have its days, but leaning on my friends here helps a lot. They

really understand because they are going through it too. It is a wonderful

support group. I don't know what I would of done without them. I look forward

to talking with you more and update us with your next doctors appointment

HERE IS THE COPY OF THE LETTER I

SENT TO MY REPRESENTATIVE IN THE HOUSE.

I am a special educator for 12 years.

I have taught children with a wide range

of abilities and disabilities. One of

the most difficult obstacles special and

regular teachers face today is how to

gain the knowledge and support we need

to teach students with Autism. The number

is increasing dramatically, as you may

know and the schools are inundated with

young children needing extremely specific

skills. Your average teacher is in need

of support.

Some districts are hiring Autism Specialists

to help out but they will need funding.

HR 4728 will enable districts to support these

children families and teachers. If this does

not pass, it will send a very cold hearted

message to those committed to helping teach

children on this very difficult road to a life

worth living.

If IDEA is to remain under-funded,

conscience would dictate that help should come

from another source....the passage of HR 4728.

I will look for your vote on this and for any

additional support you may be able to give.

Thank you, sincerely.

[Guest guest]

Dear ,

I strongly empathise with your emotions in your letter and would like to know

more about you.

You can find out more about me at http://hope-tlc.autistics.org.

Being from UK I am not familiar with what IDEA stands for - although I just read

some bits about it on the net. In principle it sounds good. How will that be put

into practice ...I do not know.

Take great care and good luck in your quest

Kind Regards

Florica

Welcome Amy! Wow! It is great to hear from someone who has actually entered

public school AFTER receiving their certification in ABA. That is usually

the point where most LEAVE public schools to go into private practice. Glad

you have decided to work in public school and join this list!

We are glad you are here!

Hello Fellow Lister's,

I am new on this list and I just wanted to introduce myself to everyone.

My name is Amy . I am living in Austin, Texas. I am a certified

Associate Behavior Analyst (BCaBA) and a Assistant Speech Pathologist

(SLP-A). I am currently working at Round Rock ISD as a speech and behavior

therapist. I am also consulting with some in home programs both privately

and through the school district. I have been working with autistic children

for seven and a half years and I worked in the Horizon program at Capitol

School of Austin for two years before I accepted this position at RRISD. At

Horizon, we were mentored by Kelle Wood BCBA, an associate of Dr. Vince

Carbone, and we also had the wonderful experience of working directly with

Dr. Carbone during the school year. I have also attended Dr. Carbone's

level one and three workshops.

I love these kids and really enjoy working with them!

Thanks for letting me introduce myself and I am excited to be a part of

your list.

Thanks again,

Amy K.
