Update on Elisa
Hello.
Elisa is still in the hospital and we continue to fight to get her the needed services by law she is entitled to. We hear so much about all the help there is out there for children with Autism but they fail to mention once they turn 21 they age out of the system and the services go away.
Right now Elisa is struggling. We are watching her fall deeper and deeper into isloation. Mike and I are both in counseling to make it through this in one piece and to keep our marriage strong--we are not going to let AUTISM destroy our marriage of 25 years!!!!!!
Our church has been so good to us.
Have a good day.
Love.
Trina

Trina, You have such a great attitude. I truly admire how you deal with all of this. Have a blessed weekend. Jenn
Trina,
I'm praying for you, too.
Elisa has a couple of amazing parents. God is looking out for her just as you are.
If you were nearby, I'd do what I could in person, but obviously that's not possible right now.
I thought they were getting her off all the meds to see what they were really dealing with? What happened?
I am saying prayers also. No one should "age" out of the system. I hope it gets better soon.
God bless you Trina!!!!
I cannot imagine the pain of watching your child suffer.... I don't get to your site often, but I do think of you often and pray for your family....Thank you for your faithfulness in checking my page and praying... Blessings to you, TJ
I thought of you when I watched ELLEN show and this came on talking about Autism. This 11 years old is trying to raise money and it has some information I thought you might be very VERY interested in.
