My nephew has severe autism. This past year he started having petit mal seizures. I never really knew what that was until I saw him have one on Thanksgiving day. He was fine, he has a rescue nasal spray for them but he slept all day. So then I found out 40% or more people with autism have seizures. It’s like.... could this nightmare be any worse? He used to speak well as a 2 year old, was perfectly developed until his 2 year shots. Then a light switch got flipped off. My poor sister has scratches all over her arms and face from his acting out but nobody can get a handle on what triggers it. You could say a word he doesn’t like and he’ll flip out. Anyway- for people who have children with autism- I pray for you every day because it is so incredibly difficult and discouraging to see what you go through. And there is very little help, at least where we live in FL. Please if y’all could say a little prayer for some hope for this.
