Hi autpddmom and welcome to NeuroTalk. Here is a link to our autism forum.

I think that would be a good place to start looking for support.

Hi Mom

Not sure how active the autism room is. We are also at times not very
active in child neuro either. But if you post in there a few will answer.

Also the epilepsy room has some parents too.

I'm Donna, and I have a 16 year old with epilepsy and who is mildly handicapped.
