And I hope you find a palace every bit as wonderful in the perfect new kingdom that's out there waiting. (And I'm sorry your current kingdom is lame.)

Read it this morning and have thought about it all day. It's a big, strange, different world to walk into and there's so much to learn. Such a beautiful testament -- your love for your child. I'm a mom to a highly-functioning autistic boy. You may not know, but April is autism awareness month. I'm trying to encourage bloggers to promote awareness that month. I'm also looking for guest bloggers.... if you're interested please read: http://momologue.blogspot.com/2008/03/join-me-in-blogging-for-autism.html. ~g Lovely post.

We are stuck in that same cycle. We want it...we approach it...we think about it...we don't feel it's the right moment...we remain in our inexpensive apartment. Good for you for making the hard calls. It's rough. I'll go through a model house and I let myself fantasize about it, because it's free. But then I make myself let it go. Living at your parents place is the freakin' Golden Goose. Why kill it before time? How freakishly odd. We are stuck in that same cycle.

My mother had a saying that I now say to my own children who embrace it as well “Everything happens for a reason.” You may not like what is happening now but it happens for a reason. You cannot even really ask why? You have to wait for the answer to be realized, and it will. Then you will see why such and such happened and you appreciate it. I will keep you and your family in our prayers. You know you will be guided and it will be more wonderful than owning what you thought was the perfect house. To see the difference between a house and a home is true beauty. This is so VERY true.

Good for you! Shame on insurance. In the meantime, have you looked into CSHCN? Slower than molasses, but they do help diagnose autism spectrum disorders and cover what the insurance won't.
