This blog is about Living with my son John who has Autism. …

I am the parent of a child with autism, on whom was bestowed the coveted and controversial 'recovered' diagnosis. My child was diagnosed "autism: severe-moderate." After much hard work on both our parts, my child "lost the diagnosis," and now is classified either as "autism: recovered," or else as "autism: indistinguishable." I am one of the lucky parents for whom all the hard work seemed to pay off in spades. I am also an autism intervention specialist. I work closely and intimately with my clients, and so keep a very small case load. And, I am in the midst of finishing the research for my PhD. That research keeps me very busy, and helps me keep my case load manageable. When I was going through it as a parent, I searched in vain for, and so wished I could find, someone who could really help me. I know I wanted someone with vast yet specialized knowledge who could devote the time and energy to fully know my child, and who would work hand in glove with me and my child. Now, I strive to fill that void for others, to be the person I so longed for when I was going through it as a parent. Autism intervention is more than my field of expertise, more than my passion. It is my life's obsession.

Mom to Caroline, 5 SPD. Please visit our website www.regardingcaroline.com for the story of her journey to recovery, we've had a lot of success with therapy in conjunction with biomed and are sharing what's worked and what hasn't. Would love to connect!

I am a Mom of twins BOTH of whom have been diagnosed with SPD. One of my twins also has a very rare brain malformation that causes other motor and medical issues. Life can be a daily struggle so our goal is always just getting to tomorrow.

I am a stay at home mom to a preschool aged daughter and toddler son. Both of my kids have SPD but one is sensory seeking and the other is sensory avoiding. It can make for some crazy days in our house! I have a blog about our journey with SPD, MERLD, and pediatric feeding and eating disorders. Please visit us at www.littlebabyfields.blogspot.com

I'm a physically disabled mommy to a neuro-disabled son (Autism, Sensory Processing Disorder, Seasonal Affective Disorder and an as-yet-unspecified neuro-muscular disorder), with a background including disability rights/awareness activism, high-level psych education, the teaching of special-needs kids, and knowing just a few too many people with a few too many kinds of psychological disorders. All in all, I've got a lot of bases covered....even if I don't always have the proverbial spoons to write about them coherently! More basic context for my family can be found here: http://unhandicapping.com/about/my-family/

I have a Bachelor's Degree in Early Childhood Education and taught preschool for 6 years. My husband and I decided my talents were best used by me staying home with our son (the added another one). Our oldest son was diagnosed with SPD at the age of 4 in 2010. Two years (off and on) of OT has made a huge difference ;)

My name is Angela and I live in beautiful Washington State. I'm a stay at home mom and have 2 wonderful boys diagnosed on the autism spectrum. They also have sensory processing disorder and multiple food allergies. If I'm not chasing after my boys or chauffeuring them to therapy, you can typically find me reading, hanging with my friends on Facebook, or making a mess in the kitchen. I run a support group for special needs families and love connecting local families with resources.

I am a stay-at-home mom with a beautiful and sensational daughter. I'm also an adoption advocate, blogger, crochet designer, and a part-time technical writer.

Amy is an art teacher and mother of two boys, Aidan (7) and Rowan (3). Rowan was diagnosed with SPD at age 2 1/2. He has made amazing gains in a year with overcoming a language delay, and with self-regulation through therapy, work at home and the use of social stories. Amy regularly writes in her own blog about her family's experiences with SPD.

I am new to this! To both Blogging and to the fact that my son has SPD. Well actually all that's new is that it has a name and I have a new direction to follow! So this is about my journey as it just begins, and I hope that someone else will read it and know that they are not alone, and, that it will help me to feel less alone and overwhelmed! I am a stay at home Mommy with a 3yr old boy, JJ who has SPD and is full of beans, and KR who is my 1yr old little girl, sweet,easy and beautiful! But then I am a biased Mommy :)

I am a 51 year old guy somewhere in the autism/Asperger's/SPD ballpark. I also have a son who has issues.

I am a SAHM to 3 little boys. My 5 year old has been diagnosed with SPD, ADHD & mood disorder. He is currently involved with OT once a week. He was born at 36 weeks emergency section. My 4 year old has been diagnosed with SPD, ADD, mood disorder and needs speech therapy (still on a wait list!). He is currently involved in OT once a week. He was born at 38 weeks. My 2 1/2 year old former micro preemie has been diagnosed with SPD, CLD and major speech delay (talks around a 15-18 month old) and is being closely monitored for other behavioral issues. He is currently involved in OT once a week and had been seeing a speech therapist. Currently back on a wait list for SpT. He was born at 26 weeks. I am also a wife. Been together for almost 7 years and married for over 3 years to a great husband and father.

I am, among many things, a wife to a loving and often quirky man, a mother to two boys ages three and six who are very loving and quite funny, and I am a Kindergarten teacher. I have been known to sing a bit of Raffi in the car, ocassionally even when there are no children present, but I can also be quite grown up when I have to be. These days I am taking it one day at a time and trying to enjoy every minute for what it is.

Mom to a spectacular 7 year old boy from Guatemala who just happens to have a genetic deletion (16p11.2 to be exact) which causes SPD, ADHD, Movement Disorder and Apraxia.

A married Stay at home mother of 3 daughters, ages 8, 5, and 3 years. Youngest is my only SPD child, she is full of life, and is just recently dx as of 4/21/11 with SPD like symptoms. Currently waiting for testing and evaluations. New to all of this and my husband and I are trying to take in all this wonderful info from the web about how we can help her. We are in Toledo, Ohio. :)

I live in Massachusetts, but dream of Vermont. I am married to a wonderful man who compliments me (opposites attract?). I spend my days juggling life as a Hospice Social Worker and parenting three boys: JD (9, PDD-NOS and ADHD with a definate sensory component who is the most loving child I have ever know), JW (6, my artist and excentric), and AJ (4, the master of cute who can push buttons like a pro). It's exhausting, but I love it.
