Speech is coming up

Darren seems to take real good reaction to brushing. He make more speech now. He will experiment with his mouth & tounge to make different kind of sounds. I am happy for him, but I think I will forgo the vitamin B12 injections from next month onwards. It really pained me to see him have to endure all the injections. If he is okay with supplements, OT, ST & brusching, I think it's more than enough.

Finally the famous yahoo group for parents with autistic kids approved of my membership with them, so now i can look at all the posting by parents there. Yeah, we need all the support we can get. As some of the parents have been though a lot. More years of struggling, more years of experiences than us. I hope i will not say the wrong thing there. I usually dislike forums. Whatever u say, sure got ppl say something, so usually I will only read up the postings, but seldom post anything.

My maid is leaving end of this year. But papa said we will have to get another maid, as sometimes we need to go out for relaxing a bit or run errands. We will still need someone to look after the kids for us. But this time round, I will be looking for a christian maid, as it will be easier for her to blend into our family. She will be able to cook, & to eat together with us. We dislike it when maid has to be treated as a maid. All our previous maids have real good lives with us, but none of them appreciated it......

Darren has fetish for his school bag now. Keeps dragging it around the house, sleeps with it & plays with it. Just check out the pic, hahaha
