|
| Strengths: |
I know and understand medicine. I can explain it on a level that any person can understand. Medicine is my hobby and passion,so it figures I would have a child on the spectrum. But I have been able to explain to many parents the physiology of the human body and how with autism-things get messed up. Many parents have come to me with diet questions-GF/CF, not getting it. When they are done with me they are already at the store buying new foods, because they understand WHY. |

So a parent doesn't feel so lost and helpless as I did. There are many things you can do to treat your child. It is not one size fits all and it does take patience and hard work! |
