Applied to the IHSS program since now im really in need for help but never thought i had to pay a fee so they could the paper work process.
I didn’t pay for anything. I only paid to get fingerprinted.
My daughter was born 28 weeks prem. She was diagnosed with ADHD and ASD in November 2023. She’s 5 years old and does present with poor executive functioning skills and has been doing OT for the past 2 years but now we need to start Speech Therapy to assist with her expressive language. Any advice on what sort of speech therapist with specific skills that they have done would help so much! Does DIR floor time and Ayes Sensory Integration assist in helping a kiddie with ASD. Thanks so much 😊
Was your child a micro preemie? Did they have anything like a Grade III brain bleed? The downside is you generally get stuck with whatever OT they have or s, l, p, but what you can try and do is stack… read more

Our son is non speaking but does FC so he told us when we moved to Vancouver Island from Manitoba, that everything was perfect but he had to work. So he is now doing 4 newspaper routes but all in one day. Because people speak to him and he doesn't answer, we accompany him on all the routes. I'm 76 and there are days when I am finding it tough. So I would like to get him another job where he could work on his own without our being present. Also, he only receives 8cents a paper so that is a lot of… read more

Not southern but I saw one individual say they were considering moving north. I can say that having my child involved with MMCC (Margaret Murphys Center for Children) has been awesome in Maine. We… read more
My cute son will hold his spit in his mouth until he throws up or is told to spit somewhere. He will hold it on the school bus, in the car up to 80 miles without swallowing. This is all new behavior for us. Any tips or advice is appreciated.

With 3 special need children and hubby on the spectrum too (just not diagnosed yet) I am at my braking point… I Can’t accomplish anything :( I always have to intervene to divide the crowd. I can’t make phone calls without them screaming bloody murder. I can’t even pass in front of a mirror and look at my reflection as they automatically ask ‘Are you leaving???’ with a tone of panic in their voice. Me and my husband can’t EVER talk, even at night when they are ‘supposed’ to sleep .. Our basement… read more
I do have some friends that I can talk to. But they aren’t in a disposition to be able to ‘help’ sadly. Being able to share here tho, with people who do understand makes it less alone :) thank you for… read more
