All About Autism

Hi Mashy,


You are so spot-on! I also intend to drop the SLT that focus on functional speech as I realize there are cheaper alternatives for that like home-based sped teacher. But since DS just started ‘talking’, I will monitor a few more months then decide. Thanks for your advice!

There is a place where those who do not walk the journey will not and cannot reach. A place that is full of thorns, but where roses bloom too. A place that can be quite lonely, but that can also be filled with joy.

sigh… but sometimes, it gets so prickly and thorny that leaves a painful experience.

What does SLT stand for?

tabgha, I agree. Sometimes it can be so painful that I dont know how to pick myself up.

But life is a cycle. Things will come to pass. Where there are bad times, there will also be good times.

SLT stands for speech and language therapy, OT stands for occupational therapy.

Hi ImMeeMee,


Yes, very painful and lonely journey, I am at the brink of collapse but need to hang on past the winter cold to see the flowers blossom in spring!

Thanks ImMeeMee, for the encouragement. It's very important to be strong for our kids. Little steps...

I have good news to share.

Anyone of you store your kid’s blood in Stemcord? I called stemcord for a billing matter today and they shared that there is this new Regenerative Therapy approved by MOH which allows a kid to use back his own cord blood for treatment of disorders such as ASD and Cerebal palsy. Is a simply procedure of injecting the cord blood into the kid’s blood stream through needles, no operation needed.

I am going to find out more from the medical officer from Stemcord, will share here if it is something worth trying.
