LIVE NOW - NO OPPORTUNITIES WASTED!!! LIVE in the NOW!

Every day more and more children in South Africa are born with Autism.



Cullen was born 15 September 2006...



Children with Autism dont show emotion, dont make eye contact, dont play, dont interact, often have problems with Speech and fine motor control...



Cullen continues to challenge himself and conquer all of this...



The Challenge - SPEECH and FINE MOTOR CO-ORDINATION, MORE PLAY, MORE INTERACTION...







Follow our journey, our challenge, our triumph, our lives...

Two Worlds

So a great weekend we had...

We met with the Elvis Fan Club who helped raised a few funds for Horsie and the kiddles were spoilt with Christmas pressies. (Thank you Jennie and everyone at the Jungle room of Africa) and then we also had Avril come see us this weekend with her son Ricky, and Kim (his girlfriend and daughter of the famous Jill Stacey ASA Autism South Africa Chair lady!) and again the kiddles were spoilt!

More surprisingly we got to chat... we got to bask in our beautiful ladybug and horsie.
Some great little miracles happened this week...
Cullen undressed all by himself to get into the bath, and just yesterday shook his head "no" when I asked if he wanted some egg...he also clearly said "FUN" to me, and announced "no doo doos" to nana one evening this week...

Ladybug is becoming quite the Dirty Dancing FAN...and loves to sing along with the x-factor finalists...

So we have one child in their OWN world and another in a DREAM world!

We see Dr Lindenberg Friday...and we had an organic amino acid test done and screened by the GREAT Plains laboratory in USA...lets see where we can tweak and get this boy to speak speak speak...

Another appointment we have coming up is one with Juliet Newberry on Monday 12 December 2011..he is an ABA expert...we want her to help with the potty training..

Wish us luck...

Here is to our Horsie and Ladybug...beautiful creatures in their OWN DREAM WORLDS!
