Just a little stressed

I tell you what, right now a good coke and cookies are great therapy for all this stress we are enduring on trying to find Luke an ABA therapist. Apparently they are few and far between.

To tell you the truth, Jonathon, my husband, was so beyond stressed yesterday, I have never quite seem him this way before. He was so down on himself and he went to bed at like 8:30 pm last night. Never does that. He seemed to be in better spirits today though.

I have called or emailed almost every person I can think of or have found through internet research, in trying to find a therapist. I found this excellent in-house preschool program, where all they do is ABA and they are all certified. The problem is, it is in Indy. May be a last resort for us, because that just creates a whole other set of obstacles for us to even get Luke up there.

Did have a glimmer of hope today, when I spoke with a lady who is a developmental therapist in Kentucky. It was only an act of God that we got her name. It started when I had run back over to Luke and Abigail's preschool mid-morning, as I had to bring them a pack of baby wipes, which I had forgot to give them earlier at drop off. Thank goodness, they are like a 2 minute drive from my office. Well, in the parking lot of their daycare, as I was leaving, I saw a lady with a therapy bag and a autism sticker on the back of her car. She was talking on the phone, so I didn't bother her. But, I did call the daycare and had them find out who she was. They got her card for me and I called her. It turns out she knows of two places here LOCAL, that provide ABA therapy.

Again, only this could have been an act of God.

I called the one place and left a message, and she is calling me back with the other places number. I am praying that this works out.

And well, the bills are starting to come in to, and well, we are hoping that medicaid gets back to us very soon, as I am not for sure how we are going to afford this on a regular basis. Thank goodness there are no income guidelines for medicaid for children with disabilities. I don't even know what we would do without that.

I think that is all for now, thank goodness I have also gotten back into running, so those cookies ad cokes don't stick on me!
