BW has been so calm and polite and compliant lately... From the hours of 9-4 or 5. The new meds are making things so much easier for him to concentrate and sort things out. He is speaking in full sentences when reminded to, and is learning to be more patient. Not completely patient, but more patient... Between the hours of 9-4 or 5. Besides those hours, it is total chaos here. Resume the screaming, obsessing, violence and nuclear meltdowns over trivial things. This combo is brilliant, but there is a definite line that gets crossed the very minute they wear off. (no, when the meds are in effect, he doesn't seemed "doped up," and it is for his benefit, not just our convenience.). Just a peek into how our days have gone lately. People at church the last couple of weeks have been encouraging in saying they have noticed big changes the past couple of weeks. (some of them know about "the big break" and others don't.) I've been in love with the new "coctail" he's on, but only between the hours of 9-4 or 5.
As for me? My nerves are still a wreck, and any prayers would be greatly appreciated for our whole spectrum family. Because really, when there's someone in the house on the Spectrum, everyone is affected. Keep BW, sister, Mom amd Dad in your thoughts please, as doors continue to open for us.
