Re: HELP ME !HELP YOU!

hi i was just readin ur letter and thought i would try too help u with the questions i dont know how to put a pic on here for u so i will have 2 e-mail it to u

1.. Kyle

2..4 1/2

3..he has 1 big brother named Lincoln who is 7 1/2

4.. he only lives with me his dad doesnt care im 27 1/2 and my name is kylie but his nan plays a gr8 big part in his life.

with my pregnanvy i was real sick i was put into hospital for dehidration (cant spell it ) my waters broke 3 weeks b4 i had him and 6 weeks b4 he stopped moving.

there is only ADD and ADHD in my family.

I am not sure what made me think there was something diffrent about kyle but it was a soon as i held him but i will say 1 comment to ur question and that is DEFINE NORMAL as i class kyle as normal ass its normally him.

20 mins old

from the minute that i held kyle he would just scream but the doctors never worked it out till he started head butting brick walls and thought it was funny and would go bk for more and i had to put a helmet on him to protect his brain.

i went to see dr Mc LIndon at hamilton medical group and he told me that he thinks kyle may have autisim. and also told me abot the helmet and we disided to do it for kyle

i fealt scared freaked out i cryed for days on end i thought it felt like a giant dream. my feats were that ppl were goin to treat kyle badly like a freak or use the words that i hate the most retard and spastic i even went to the hamilton paper and had our photo and an artical put in it to tell ppl that u cant catch it if u want a copy let me know and i will scan it for u.

my family were fine with it as we treat ppl with additional needs the same. if my family had had a problem they would have been told where to go.

yes i had 1 women ask me once cant i shut my kid up as kyle dont like curtain shops and stuff like that thats why i went to the paper.and a few more if u want more let me know.

the proudest moment for me would b wen kyle was sitting @ my mums kitchen table with a card with his name on it and he goes K Y L E kyle he spelt it out me and my mum were in shock. i have lots more but thats probebly the most proud.

no i havnt found anything as yet but i reckon he will be thought just not sure wat.

kyles attachment are his piglet from pooh bear and his thomas.

kyle has violent outbursts all the time umm one of the ones i remeber is i was doin a puzzle with lincoln and he came up and full fist closed just punched me. he has it bad to attack lincoln  and my sister but wen he does it will ussally b up 2 10 minutes after what ever it is that has stured him up.

yes he does have tantrums they are mainly when i dont understand what  he is trying to say or he cant say what he wants to say. its just a matter of hoping that it will work out.

ppl just seem to stear and make nasty comments when kyle does it. i have even had words with a lady once b4 over a comment she made wen kyle was screamin just happened to be that i was in the same shop as her and my mum was with kyle.

the things that i do to cope is just to think that ok life is real hard @ the momnet but some ppl out there are going through more.

i only have to say that they are very special little kids and we just need to bind together and solider on.
