I find it hard sometimes. As I mentioned, Princess Belle has High Functioning Autism. And it makes me so sad that the people I expect to be the most understanding and loving in regards to her, seem to be the least.

I am so sad
I have been doing some reading and it appears that if experts have their way, Asperger’s syndrome and another mild form of autism, pervasive developmental disorder not otherwise specified (P.D.D.-N.O.S. for short), will be folded into a single broad diagnosis, autism spectrum disorder — a category that encompasses autism’s entire range, or spectrum, from high-functioning to profoundly disabling. I know a lot of people are upset with this but they seem to be doing the logical thing to me – autism was a spectrum anyway, with AS included on it, and that AS and HFA were basically the same thing.

Bad Bad Day
I have discovered that while it is rewarding, being a mom to two kids under two and one eight year old with Aspergers is exhausting. I can’t remember the last full nights sleep I got, I get up at the crack of dawn with the kids and even during the day finding time to get a shower is a luxury. I love it, don’t get me wrong, but I am still trying to get handle on a schedule of sorts to keep on top of everything and to fit in such things as working out and showering and lovely things like that.
