On November 4th 2004 our lives were forever changed. It was our D-Day…Diagnosis Day.
Rashele and I were clueless as to what the world of autism would bring us. Some lessons were learned quickly, others we’re still learning. One thing that was apparent, our marriage would suffer. Like most couples, any time we had to ourselves fell to the wayside.
The stress of the constant shuttle of doctor and therapy appointments, denials by the insurance company, a quickly dwindling savings account took its toll. Pressure mounted and we many times took the troubles out on each other.
