To My Baby Boy…


by: Hilary on Mon, Feb 11 2008

I have a son named Matthew. He is now seven. After 7 yrs. of doctors, hospitals, evaluations, and tests we discovered autism He is on the resperidol 4times a day. It helped for about two yrs. then all of a sudden, stopped!!! The tantrums, the screeching the screaming, the hitting, the biting, the chewing his clothes, the rocking back and forth. No eye contact, repetative words, lack of empathy…We’re talking text book autism I have two other children to protect and to keep safe. It has gotten to the residental treatment time of our lives for the safetl and sanity of my other two… But why do I feel son bad my baby boy Matty. I want to do the right thing by him, however I feel that we are way past that. I give my sons’ health to the good Lord and pray he is okay. I love my Matty, I am just all out of solutions.
