Mom of child with a disability
Quote From: peggyohioTo Cyndi (mom on show with son who has Autism & Downs) - Please email me, Your words said what I am also feeling. I have a 21 yr old son who has Autism & is non-verbal & am going thru a terrible time right now with aggression. He will calmly walk up to me & yank me by the hair like a rag doll. He's on spring break right now & I just want to get to Monday. You are lucky to get hooked up with the Kennedy Krieger Inst. I'm sure they can help you. Please contact me... I think we could be good supports for each other. I will say a prayer for you and your family that life gets easier. Thanks for you words of support. I am sorry that I cannot send you a personal email.I know oh to well about a aggressive behaviors. Alex has slapped us, broken my lamps, furniture,windows,pulled my hair out,pinched,scratched etc.My son takes meds for aggressions and at first it helped but after 2 yrs we had to switch his meds.There are Dr.'s that say aggressive behaviors are from gut issues. Thanks for the prayers and support. Good luck Cyndi
