Appearances
My first one was floppy, the second one was stiff.
Asher, my first was very sensitive.
Rashi didn't cry when he got shots in his in his thigh.
Um he he didn't seem to be as interactive with me in the world.
He didn't seem to respond to sound in any the usual way.
So it was scary and worrisome in a different way.
And and then we had our third child and
I I had a daughter, uh her name is Shirielle and at that point I figured, well, if I have a child I really need to take them to the child development specialist 'cause that's what you do in my family.
Um
And I was kind of shocked to find out that she was a typically developing child.
So Asher
He had sensory processing disorder, which was actually not a diagnosis when he was little.
But and Rashi was eventually diagnosed with Asperger's, which as you know is now considered an autism spectrum disorder.
And he was also diagnosed with very severe sleep apnea when he was nine, although I'm sure he had it all his life.
Um
And I wanna mention that I have talked to my kids about talking to you about them and about their diagnosis and they've given me permission to talk about them.
Um, just so you know.
So I started leading workshops, the how to talk workshops when uh my oldest Asher was in preschool.
And those early groups were for all parents and eventually eventually I started leading workshops uh specifically for parents with kids on the autism spectrum and for parents of kids with sensory processing disorder.
Um, because we parents of atypical kids face challenges that other people don't face.
