Doing Well

My brother's been doing well even though school is currently quite useless since the staff are constantly changing and he also often has substitutes. However, therapy at home has been going well and we recently had a meeting to discuss his progress. Boy Scouts has been good; they had a hike, though he likes to touch people and hug them, which is quite a problem.

If you have heard that Autistics cannot stand touch, this is certainly true for some Autistics, but it is also common for the opposite to occur. Deep pressure sometimes helps sooth Autistics. Temple Grandin created such a squeeze machine for this. Temple Grandin's site is: http://grandin.com/

Busy, busy as usual...
