sassenach Posted June 8, 2008 Share Posted June 8, 2008 Welcome Kaki! Ive got a friend with two young adult Autistic children. Only the daughter lives with the mother. The son has to be in a home. I know it happens in various degrees and it turns out my exhubby has aspergers, and one of his twin sons by his second marriage has a light case. My son, from first marriage is doing fine. In the military until the Fall. I am glad you are here. My son will be marrying eventually as he got engaged over Valentines to a lovely lady. They both were enlisted and became Marine officers. Our kids can face the odds and accomplish things, maybe in different scales, but their self worth is vital, I can tell it really makes a difference. My sons fiance will go to Iraq. I pray she comes home safe and can re-adjust when its all said and done. Been around so much ptsd, which is just as challenging in its own way... take care, we all got something goin on! Glad to have you with us. I only joined in May, myself. Im a veteran, there are many others who are military connected too. I am so glad to belong here...everyone is wonderful, and many are so clever! Link to comment
PureCajunSunshine Posted June 23, 2008 Share Posted June 23, 2008 Hi Kaki! I've enjoyed reading your helpful posts, and looking forward to more. Sorry to be so late welcoming you to here! Welcome to MrsSurvival! I think you will enjoy it here as much as I do. I love the way a lot of the threads here evolve into many new ways around old problems! Sometimes, threads get a little off track, but keep reading, because sometimes the juciest fruit is buried where you least expect it! Mais cher! Don't miss out! Welcome to one of the most progressive "all-purpose" preparedness/survivalist sites on the Internet. Be sure to check out the for-members-only sections downstairs! --Sharon Link to comment
