Its been a while

Its been quite some time since we posted last, time just flies by. We have been extremely busy with doing our best to get Brucie his therapy. Until just recently he was attending a Mothers Day out program at Community Promise here in Burleson, Texas. Accompanied by our home therapist and his Aunt Jean, Bruce was going for a 3 hour “session” of classroom and recess with neurotypical children as we prepared for next year when Brucie begins Kindergarten. Just last week, Darby was accepted into the University of North Texas and will begin working on becoming a dietitian. Given our passion for GFCF diet,  our love for organic food and non genetically modified foods why not become a dietitian. The added bonus of Darby going to school is that she is eligible for Health Insurance through the University, and with this added Bonus this Insurance is a fully funded Insurance plan that is mandated to cover Autism related therapy. Its truly a blessing, for the first time since Brucie being diagnosed with Autism, he is now getting his fully prescribed therapy at Mustard Seeds Ranch in Roanoke, Texas.  Mustard Seeds Ranch incorporates ABA, OT, Speech, PT, Equine Therapy, Swimming Therapy and has a special education teacher on hand. We have seen Brucie make great strides in what we have been paying out of pocket for 3 years now, We are extremely excited about the opportunity Brucie has now. It is an amazing feeling to no longer be discriminated against by Insurance due to his diagnosis. We continue to fight for awareness and hope that one day all children affected by Autism will receive their therapy. I hope everyone who is affected by Autism continues to fight for the rights of our children.
