Hello, my name is Kendra. 5 years ago yesterday I was given the most amazing miracle. A baby boy. After a few hours of birth he was rushed to univercity of chicago childrens hospital. Due to seizures and apnea. He was monitored and tested for a few weeks their until he was finally able to go home:) monthes later he seemed on paceuntil, my husband and I saw anoher child his age. How much they could talk. Of course we didnt think much of it. We made excuse after excuse...until finally a couple years ago we finally decided to fully rechearch what was going on in our sons life. We had another son 18 monthes after Lex was born. And when he (Max) had started putting sentances together and answer simple questions...Lex couldn't. That was a little wakeup call for us afrer some denial! Finally April of 2013. I took Lex to rileys childrens hospital in indianapolis indiana. Lex was diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder. Since then he has gotten percriptions for some speach therapy and occupational therapy. He is starting a new school were he can get one on one attention. He is so excited and loves it! He just before school had experianced another seizure...his first one since he was a newborn. So we are still watching closely for him and taking all precautions we can. Of course prayers would be appreciated;) Thank you everyone for your time.
