Slowly getting Jakie back from autism

[Sisasugg78]

I wish you all the best jacob! Greetings from "the little" switzerland

It's not his fault he has autism.

I know this girl cassidy with autism.

She facinates me, she's a very talented

softball player and she's only 9.

She lives down the street with me and

she suprises me everyday with how much

she has accomplished.

your son is very cute(:

[Go21Veg]

He is a beautiful little boy, and I am happy that he has made so much progress. But understand that autism is a part of who he is. Don't pray for a cure, pray for acceptance from other people. Autism is the beauty in the world. :)

he'll be fine.god bless your little angel

This brought tears to my eyes. Your words just dig right through me. We are going through an ....ism diagnosis right now. Results on Friday. This ordeal has nearly tore our family apart several times, many inconsolable tears. Sometimes I wonder if there really is an all-powerful / loving / knowing God. If so, who would let this happen to children? Then I come across stories like this where special needs children are placed in caring hands ... now I have no doubt.

To Jakie: Hang in there, brother! I am autistic mild, here myself, so I feel your pain. Don't let the world poop on you and try your best to listen to mom and dad, I know its seems like bullpoop alot of times, but there is some truth in what they tell you, if it seems like poop, it isn't all poop, you just gotta DIG IT OUT to understand it, I know its dang impossible sometimes, but dude, better late than never. GOOD LUCK BROTHER!

Wow... this brought tears to my eyes... your story and pictures resemble my family so much. My son who has autism is 6 1/2. God Bless you and your family

[angelmom65]

Just wondering how Jacob went from severe to mild autism....what were the interventions that helped him? From the pictures he looks just like any other child...happy, going to school, etc. God bless your family.

[Krausecrew]

Hello, Thanks for looking!

We got Jacob early intervention with ABA therapy that saved both of our lives. He made AMAZING improvements but was very tough on the entire family during the first stage of the process. I am so grateful we stumbled upon it and it worked so so so well. He went from ONLY screaming to now being able to talk in full sentences and in a typical 2 grade classroom.

Many of us with children with autism share your struggles. Keep educating, loving, and accepting! What a beautiful family you have.

[withlove4them]

These children are very special. I have worked with them and fell in love with each child I was blessed to work with. Check out my video, "Autism the Blessing", it might help you. Bless you for bringing into the world another very special person.

[merryerin7]

This is such a beautiful video - you've bought tears to my eyes - Jacob has everything going for him; because he has parents that love him and accept him - that is the message that we need to get out there - ACCEPTANCE - these guys are incredibly gifted and loving and honest - they're just wired a bit differently and that's OK! with love and support to you and your family

[Pessinb]

Beautiful, I'm sure many families and children in pain can relate. We sure can!

When my brother was diagnosed they said it was 1 in 10,000. That was just funny to us because we knew of three kids on our street alone that were diagnosed the same. We lived on a military base.

[navywife1977]

Many of the military bases get the old vaccines. Sometimes they are the ones that still have thimerosal in them. :o( Get the lot number and find out if yours is one of them.

[sunshineawning]

Thank you for sharing your sons special story with us and reminding us of what's REALLY important in all of our lives. We pray that you will always be guided by faith and trust in Gods special plans for your beautiful son!

[kbhall93]

What a beautiful little guy! You are so blessed to have him in your life... he reminds me a bit of our daughter. hope he finds happiness and peace.
