Saying Goodbye

Featuredby signedwithlovekathyLeave a Comment on Saying Goodbye

For the last 12 years. For the last 12 years: August marked the beginning and May the end. Summertime was the only time to take a real vacation. I lived for days where I could wake up and throw on a pair of jeans. I could spend all day at work working, just to bring [...]

The Difference a Year Makes

Featuredby signedwithlovekathyLeave a Comment on The Difference a Year Makes

We shared Jacob's autism diagnosis a year ago on social media. We weren't looking for sympathy. We weren't looking for attention. We weren't looking for people to pity us. Instead, we decided to share our story with the hopes that it might help others walking this journey also. We hoped that our choice to be [...]

Check On Your Strong Friends

Featuredby signedwithlovekathyLeave a Comment on Check On Your Strong Friends

I couldn't fall asleep tonight, so I did what I think most Americans do: hop on Facebook. The rational part of my brain doesn't know why I choose to combat my lack of falling asleep by doing the opposite of what doctors and those familiar with brain activity suggest. I know better, but sometimes I [...]

UNT’s Adventures in Autism Conference: 2019

But today it meant we were attending a local conference dedicated to therapeutic interventions for people living with Autism. [...]

Everything Happens For A Reason … Right?

Yesterday we found out that we would not be part of the initial intervention therapy that we had hoped for through UTD. I was certain we would get it. I was positive that I would open up the envelope placed in Jacob's folder and it would be what I wanted to read. My husband even [...]

New Doctor. New Hope.

March 15, 2020by signedwithlovekathyLeave a Comment on New Doctor. New Hope.

Last February Juan placed a phone call to a doctor's office just outside of Chicago. We knew we wanted for this doctor to see Jacob and were told the waitlist would be about a year, so we were encouraged to reach out as soon as possible. Life last year seems like a blur. At this [...]

Sometimes waiting is the hardest part

September 29, 2019October 2, 2019by signedwithlovekathyLeave a Comment on Sometimes waiting is the hardest part

We went to go visit our oldest in Fayetteville last weekend for Parent Weekend at the University of Arkansas. What our 5-hour drive lacks in terms of restaurants and gas stations, it certainly makes up for with lakes, trees and fields of grass. No matter how many books I take or how many podcasts I [...]
