It's been a while

I know, I know it's been a while. I know people say no news is good news but I've come to find that's isn't always the case. A lot has happened. Jack got the actual flu 😷 broke out in unexplainable hives. (seriously since November) Doctor and Specialist can't figure it out. Yesterday we started Aba therapy. Let me start by saying while the supervisor and therapist them selves are lovely. I absolutely hated every single second of it. I don't care for being told I've not being doing things correctly or I haven't done things I should have by people who've known my son for all of two hours. I understand I asked for this. I understand the point. I understand it's beneficial to Jack. I also understand I don't want to do it anymore. I do not want to watch my son turn into this version of himself I don't know. I am well aware of the saying growth is pain change is ugly blah blah blah he is a six year old little boy and I'm just having a hard time getting behind anything that causes him to scream and become so violent I his own mother no longer recognize him. Yesterday was hard for him but it broke me.
