Guest guest Posted October 9, 2007 Report Share Posted October 9, 2007 Hi my name is , I am a Home Educator of 5 children, child #4 is 11 yrs old and has Down Syndrome and it has been suggested that he has autism, but he has not been officially diagnosed. I home school so he is with his siblings most of the time We also participate in a home school Pe/Swimming, a home school CO-OP one day a week and Boy Scouts. It is hard work for me! and does not always work for him. I have learned to take what I can as positives for him and leave the rest. My son has Celiac Disease and Kidney damage which requires him to be on a gf /f diet-low Na and K diet as well. I find I am getting tired. I'm looking for answers to help me, help him--seems medication is the only suggestion I seem to get. But I know that is not the answer I am looking for. ( or I would just get some for myself!) I am looking into the ICAN program, weighted blanket, samonas listening program-- He is entering puberty---so things are intensifying. thanks, Tucker's mom L.
