NWR: But I need some support right now...
FH and I found out yesterday that our 2 year old has Autism. Now, I am worried about my 3 month old b/c they say it's genetic. I always knew Luke was a difficult child, but I guess I always thought he'd grow out of it. Now I know he might not. It's just so sad b/c he's such a sweet kid and he doesn't deserve this. FH is in serious denial and I just feel really alone right now...
Thanks for reading...

Re: NWR: But I need some support right now...
My prayers are with you and your family and especially your son. I have heard so many miracle stories about children with autism.

Re: NWR: But I need some support right now...
Oh, I'm so very sorry! That is such a hard thing to hear! Your son is very lucky to have such loving parents and I'm sure that you and your FH will do your absolute best when it comes to making decisions about his future, and with couseling options. I wish you the very best of luck. I bet there is a board somewhere online for parents of autistic children. I'm sure it would really help you out. You should try to do a search.

Re: NWR: But I need some support right now...
try not to dwell on the diagnosis--i know it's easier said than done...but remember that there are soooo many different types of schooling, therapy, education today than many years ago, concerning autism. try and focus on how you will make the best of this situation! your child can still grow up to be healthy & happy!! it will just be a bit more tougher than a child w/o autism. my nephew has autism, and he's one of the more pure souls you'll ever meet. while he can be a handful at times (he's 10 now), deep down we all love him and understand.
my thoughts are with you.

Re: NWR: But I need some support right now...
I'm so sorry you heard that news. There are such varying degrees of autism, and so much can be done! The important thing is that he's loved and lovable, which I can tell he is! You are in our prayers.

Re: NWR: But I need some support right now...
At 2 my son was diagnosed with PDD - NOS (on the autistic scale). We have enrolled him in AMAC and he has imporved leaps and bounds. It has taken me a looonnngg time to come to grips with his disability, and to behonest I am still not 100%, but it will get easier and there are a number of programs available to help. He has his next evaluation next week and I am worried sick what it will show. FM if you want to talk. I understand what you are going through!!

Re: NWR: But I need some support right now...
You have beautiful Son. Definatley do a lot of research. Make yourself knowledgeable about everything. My Son was evaluated and he needed speech and occupational therapy. It was discovered by his pre-school. I had him evaluated and now he goes to a school on Marcus Avenue and does great. There is so much they can do now with Autism. Good Luck and I'll say a prayer for him.

Re: NWR: But I need some support right now...
I'm very sorry to hear that news. My cousin is severely autistic (she's 16). My aunt has two other children (both born after) and neither of them have autism.
