The trials, tribulations, success and happiness of a family who happen to be raising a child with a diagnosis of autism.
The 411:
In June 2006, I decided to leave my job as Director of Product Development for a medical device company. After five years of splitting myself in two I decided to be a stay at home mom. I have two children 6 & 8, the older of whom was diagnosed with autism at age 2 1/2.
What you’ll find here:
Exploration of the choice of career and family
Raising children in the Silicon Valley (Bay Area)
Raising a child with Autism
Discussion of experiences, therapy, IEPs, California living and critical thinking.
