It's late, and I just got going on this idea I have, so I'll be brief.
Any Dads out there raising autistic kids?
Alone?
With a spouse / partner?Getting therapy? (if you're not, then you are suffering needlessly)
Marriage imploding?
On the rocks?
Tired? Oh, I'm tired. Have slept in on my own just a handful of times in 8 years.
Location: Pacific Northwest
Idea: RAISE AWARENESS!
I've had 2 discectomies to my L4 and L5 disks since 2008. THAT'S MAJOR BACK SURGERY BY THE WAY. My son weighs 95 pounds and I an only supposed to lift 50. No in home supports, No help. Except from family when they are around.
Finances? Disaster.
What is wrong? Where is the help? IDEAS ARE COMING. I feel like I could die from stress. What will become of my son?
Anyone out there relate? COPE? GIVE UP?

He's worth it, by the way.
One more question: Any Dads out there take their autistic kids on MOTORCYCLE rides? This is where I am going.
