      Nicol.. I just watched the video.. your story is amazing! I wish i had watched that before.. you would be pleased to know that i do respite care for kids with various dd/mental ilnesses, autism/pdd-nos being among them, using my intimate firsthand expereince with pdd-nos to help future generations. I LOVE doing respite care..does Micheal recieve respite?

      From dedicatedmom July 12

      Hey how are you doing? we are fine.. minor set back on potty training. I think it is due to drastic changes in her schedule.oh well what can you do.. but she sleeps in pull ups and wears them in the day time..so this is a whole lot further than dr.s said we would be by now.. i will take it. what is new with you
