Hi there. I heard at some point over the last two or three months that Catherine Maurice had recently written a new book which described some of the more recent challanges they had experienced with their kids' social skills etc. when they got older. However, when I tried finding it on the internet, nothing came up. Now I'm wondering if this was just a figment of my imagination. I know that she definately wrote some more "how to" type of books after LMHYV, but I had understood this most recent publication to be more of a "LMHYV – Part 2" kind of thing. Does anyone out there know if there really is such a book by her?

Thanks.

Rachel Notley

I don't know the answer to your question but had planned to ask for exactly
the same thing when my daughter turns one (next month). I would be very
interested in hearing about any response you receive on this issue and I'll
let you know what I hear back from my family doctor.

INFORMATION NEEDED

Hello,

I am looking for information on how to go about getting the MMR (given at 12 months of age) separated into three doses. Someone I know has a child nearing their first birthday and is being told that they can't have the vaccine separated here. If anyone has any info on how one would go about getting the vaccine delivered in individual doses, I would greatly appreciate it. Please email lianaray@interchange.ubc.ca

Thank you,
Liana Maione

Is there any way that I can get a hold of Barb Rodriguez? (I hope I spelled that correctly). There is a parent here in Prince George that would like to get in touch with her. (re: radio)
You can contact me at taryn_1@hotmail.com
Thanks, Taryn

Hi everyone!

You won't want to miss this month's guest speaker. We finally have a consultant from W.E.A.P. named Michael Schimek who will be speaking at our next meeting, Tuesday December 11, 7:00pm at 6788 152nd Street, Surrey.

Micheal is now based out of Vancouver and the company is E.A.P. The Wisconsin Early Autism Project is a replication sight for the Lovaas studies done out of UCLA and the results that they have achieved in the last few years are truly amazing.

If you already have a home-based program, are interested in finding out about one, or just plain curious to know about ABA THERAPY please join us next Tuesday evening. Everyone welcome.

See Ya There,

Laurie Romey

Hola Diana Sabbagh, mi nombre es Jenny como tu nina, yo tambien tengo un nino con autismo , el tiene 3 anos. Acabamos de empezar el programa de ABA, nuestra consultant es Bodhana de EAP .
Por ahora estamos como la mayoria de padres tratando que nos ven individualized funding, pero nada de resultados.

No se si usted sabe acerca de el dinero que estan dando a ninos estre las edades de 4 1/2 y 6 anos, es lo que llaman "transition money", para preparar a los ninos antes de que empiezen el kinder.

Tambien por medio de el Health Unit hay un programa que se llama "the at home program", uno tiene la opcion de escoger entre cuidado medico o respite, si uno escoge respite le dan $200 dolares por mes y uno los puede usar para pagar nineras, pero muchas familias lo usan para pagar ABA programs sin que el Health Unit se de cuenta.

Nosotros estamos muy interesados en formar una associacion para poder pedir ayuda al govierno en la forma de grants, y tambien para poder pedirle ayuda a otras organizaciones como United Way, Variery Club , Lions or Royal Canadian Legion, asi podriamos ayudarnos y ayudar a otras familias que esten en la misma situacion.

Por ahora lo que estamos tratando de hacer es de encontrar a unas pocos seleccionadas familias que enten interesadas en formar esta sociedad y que esten dispuestos a pertenecer a un "Board", como voluntarios .

Bueno me despido espero , que nos mantegamos en contacto, yo vivo en Maple Ridge, talvez hasta nos podriamos conocer o salir a tomarnos un cafe.

Saludos y adelante con el ABA.

Hi everyone. We just got the internet. Our son lucas is five and has entered kindergarten. We had to train the TA ourselves,but the school board agreed to pay wages as long as Lukie was kept home. She is amazing.The teacher also attended workshop with Autism Partnership.So far so good. We would love to hear from other parents who fit into the whole KT(kindergarten transition)age group. We are always on the look out for new ideas..We would also like any info on oral motor input…our son is constantly pressing his mouth area and mouthing\chewing objects the traditional ideas are not working becuse he also eats an extremly limited amount of food.We can be reached at m&m@sno.net . Thanks Michelle&Mario
