For those who wish to, (I would love it very much), you can start a thread on this page with your well wishes, and prayers if you pray... It would mean tons. - For those who might not know how to start, here may be a sample prayer that would be wonderful: Dear Lord Jesus our savior and lover, I pray that Kris would be healed both mentally and physically (even more abundantly than before) as soon as possible and in through aweing ways that touch others. Give her this healing so that she can continue to do your work and to help other families with people touched by Autism. Thank you Lord God and I say this prayer with faith, even if as small as a mustard seed I know you will listen and respond, and I praise it. Now go to work and be the best Father this world needs and in the life of Kris. In your son's sacrifice I pray & rejoice, AMEN. - If you do not believe in Jesus or God, you can just say 'a higher power' so as not to offend.

UPDATE; Viruses travel in the family. I had been to petsmart and some other places (good), got nice new glasses (good) -transition was hard but got through it and even helped out the eyeglass people who had Autistic children themselves. Got energy to dress up and get pictures with my brothers, had some b-day parties (low key thank goodness) and I may upload them. Visiting and sharing love with not yet adopted animals with Sasha by my side. Got some free stuff from where we got Sasha and like the people there so incentive to go out more. Starting some new meds, gradually decreasing meds while trying another, etc. Sort of of just started so we will see what that brings. I got a virus and got bad fluid in my ears so made dizziness that was getting so better not so good. I am continuing on my therapy and scheduling which is helping through this trial. I had some tests done to see if I have strep or another throat thing. Itching bad and Asthma not so good but using treatment plan. Our animals have colds now too :( So, please pray for them as well. I've been very tired from all the meds and prescriptions combined creating hives & stuff, so not been on lately. Trying to stay awake right now, kind of LOL. So that is an update for you all.

UPDATE; still having some bad tics (including breathing tics) but am almost done for going to the therapy place at the hospital - only 2 more times!!!!! :) :) That's awesome; I'll still have to do it at home but done soon for having to go to the place to revise and get new ones - so dizziness/lightheadedness/tipping getting better; been swimming and been walking more even in a couple stores like Target; I have tests 'cause of bulging in my stomach so they'll put me to sleep to do them. However, I am improving - Praise God for him and the people that he is sending me to that are chrisitans and who are praying for guidance as doctors to treat me correctly and as quickly as they can.

UPDATE: Just got home this morning from the hospital. I was gone into ER. My left eardrum was bulged and spread down left side of neck (infection from that so have Fevers right now). The right eardrum was perferated. This all caused dizziness and extreme pain. I got big Valum prescriptions, ear drops for swelling, pain, etc. for the eardrums, and pain meds. I have them every 4 hours for now. The doc said if not get better, I come and see him again for more tests. I guess the only good thing about this is that it may finally shed light onto at least 1/2 reason why I'm so sick - dizzy, lightheaded, virus, etc. (I've had ear pain for the 16 months I've been sick... it was said, "in my head." it all spiraled out of control when doc I had didn't listen to me when I said, "I don't think the ear infection is gone" - 16 months ago. These new doctors and hospital staff (who know me since they see me a couple times now, God bless them for listening and doing the necessary things peacefully. -01/29/08-

Being sick when you have Autism makes every aspect of Autism harder including vestibular wise and sensory, tics, etc.

For those who have been checking for small updates at the top of each page and for those wondering, etc. how Autism can affect doctors and their diagnosis, here is my story so far in a nutshell.

Here it is:

This is what's happened so far... (In a nutshell as it would be too long to explain everything and include everything)
