Tammy speaking
Hello again! In my previous blog post I shared about my long time adventure towards publishing books. My books will help those on this path of caring for someone with a disabily such as autism. It is our intent to publish books that are more subject based with tools and tips to assist anyone on this journey.
Today I am going to share a few more subjects with you. All feedback, questions, and thoughts are welcome.
- Outings – How to deal with waiting for doctors, traveling in a car, and meetings. How to help your loved one through the frustration of outings. Tools and tips to help be proactive when taking any adventure.
- Masturbation – Yes I said that. Like it or not this is a part of life. Many of our sensory seeking people have difficulty understanding this part of their life. I have tips and tools to teach what is appropriate and what is not. My experience in dealing with this will help me help others.
- Holidays – For some families the word holiday or thoughts of the holidays are dreadful. They’ve had ugly situations take place during the holidays.. I will share with you some of those issues and ways to handle them, as well as how to be proactive in doing so.
I am not writing a textbook. I am choosing to write as if we are having a conversation. Any of us can go buy a book that is done in a text book style. I want caregivers to be comfortable reading what I write. You won’t have to go research acronyms or fancy words. I am talking to people to help them through tough times because I have been in their shoes.
