Introduce yourself (part one)

Hi everyone,

We thought we'd create a discussion where people can say hello and introduce themselves.

You don't have to say something here but it'd be nice to get a chance to say hello Smile

Please remember that you should not share personal details (such as emails or phone numbers) to protect your privacy.

And don't feel you have to introduce yourself, it's entirely up to you and please only share what you're comfortable with.

  • I am Casey and I am a single mummy to my 2 sons, Harvey who is 3 and is autistic and Alfie who will be 2 on the 15th April, so to say I have my hands full is an understatement. We first saw the peadiatrician on the 20th August 2010 and he said suspected autism but to come back when he was 3, We went back last Thursday (10th Feb) and he confirmed severe autism, which wasn't much of a shock to be honest because I knew, I'd known for a while that something wasn't quite right with him, He can be difficult as little things can set him off but other times, he's a pleasure to have around, he is at the moment a non verbal autistic, but his support worker said he has a lot of potential as he is very vocal and will make lots of sounds.
