Hard Week

It has been a really hard week with our little angel.  He has truly been in camouflage this weekend.  It is hard to say why or when these bad times will occur.  We have yet to figure out all the triggers.  One thing is that he needs to be left with a babysitter as much as possible.  He gets overstimulated with the other children.  The more chaos around him the more frustrated he becomes.  And there is always chaos with this many children.  He would do better in an environment without other children. 

We have qualified for the respite care so now the job of finding someone to watch him will begin.  We are also continuing to fill out papers and answer questions regarding his disability income.  This would be a huge help in getting things "Joseph" proof.  He is doing really well in school.  He is doing more than anyone believed he would be able to do when he first started.  He is still on a Kindergarten level but has even moved up to lower first grade level in some areas. 

He is dealing with a lot of different sensory issues right now.  He smells his hands constantly.  He is starting to taste and lick everything.  And he is getting more aggressive.  That is the part that scares us the most. 

I've come to the conclusion that there are no answers anymore.  It changes daily.  No one knows what tomorrow holds.  So all we have is prayer.  I have to pray that God heal his mind or I have to pray that I have the strength to do what I have to do.
