Please contact your local senator today! The autism bill has one last chance tomorrow to make its way through the senate, please let them know why you support this bill. Premiums will go up less than 1 % but the overall life long savings is huge due to the advancement that can be made in this kids with early intervention, they will require less services from the staet when they are adults. Call, email, do whatever you can. PLEASE! I cannot begin to tell you the emotional, physical, and financial burden we've had to deal with because of the lack of insurance coverage. We need your help!
We worked quite a bit with TYler this weekend on using writing utensils. We looked for creative ways to get him interested. A friend loaned us a stylus with a sponge tip that can be used on the IPAD. Attached is a picture of Tyler which shows him using it. one of his goals on his IEP is to write a few letters. I'm thinking if I cna get him to master this skill with electronics where he is motivatated, we can transfer it over to pencil and paper. I Also puleld back out an old leap frog toy where you draw shapes, he still needs help but he's very motivated, keeps bringing it to me to play with him. In general, he was very much a mama's boy over this Thanksgiving break.


Gotta go, please call and advocate for insurance.
