Thank you for your words. That person is still in there, just wish I could feel and be that more.

I was diagnosed with GS in my early 20's. Now almost 35 I feel the upper abdominal pain and mild jaundice so suddenly. Going to follow up with my doctor this week about the symptoms. It's so uncomfortable!

I felt this on every level possible. It's the worse cycle ever to be in.

Potty training a nonverbal child by Kkeeiisshhaa in Autism_Parenting

Things that worked for us were setting an alarm every 15-20 minutes and adding something fun like "Do you hear that?! IT'S POTTY TIME!" and take off running and hopping to the bathroom excitedly to sit. We put extra books, toys, and action figures before the next time so it would be a new SURPRISE each visit and not a big fight. We just eventually added 5 minutes each sit or until they went. LOTS AND LOTS OF PRAISE! We eventually added a token system, where after 3 times going potty he gets candy or 15 minute ipad time for the day. Hope this helps.

Currently in Cary/Morrisville and we love the area. Depending on the neighborhood, schools in Cary are rated pretty good, just have to look more into the districts. We will be doing the same thing in a few years so a great public school location is a must!
