Thanks Mark... I hadn't thought of that. I'm not sure what I would do about that either.
Its a real problem when dealing with others... they are so... unpredictable!! Like going out into the world isn't hard enough with light / sound sensitivities, gait issues, etc... but then god forbid some kid runs up behind you and screams and your day is just over!!
In the beginning, my husband was convinced they were seizures, but I'm pretty sure they aren't. I used to teach a kid that had startle seizures and I'm pretty sure they were different than this.
