Well hello there! It’s been a minute since I’ve wrote our last blog and so much has happened. Not only for Kellan, but a pandemic has come up since then. Duh! Like you didn’t know. I wanted to write a quick update about where Kellan is. I had recently found a journal I started a …

Love Conquers All
In short: A fellow autism mom posted about before she realized her child had autism a church she attended denied her child to attend the children’s ministry because they didn’t have someone extra to meet the child’s needs. She was offended because she didn’t even know he had autism at that time. Before we start …
Fear
Fear is something I’ve dealt with all my life like everyone else in the world. Fear of failure, taking the next step, losing a family member/ friend, not being enough, and the lists goes on and on. Since, our son regressed into autism I’ve had a lot of fear. Our boy went from a bubbly …

Anxiety
Anxiety. A word(and feeling) I’ve been pretty familiar with since the age of 15. Since I have anxiety surrounding my son’s medical journey it was extremely scary to share Kellan’s story. Not everyone is going to understand or maybe even like our story. Our church has been focusing on anxiety. It’s something people are struggling …
Our Son’s Story
Kellan regressed into autism… which means he did meet all milestones as his doctor expected (even more advanced in some areas) and had a few words before one. Then Kellan lost his speech and some milestones he had already achieved. At 18 months he just up and forgot what breastfeeding was and started screaming bloody …
