jaydens journey

Jayden was very late with walking & talking. He would not socialise and was constantly upset by buisy places, new places, and loud places or noises. He was diagnosed with autism age 2 & underwent lots of assessments and therapy. 2 years on he is now 4 years old. He is the most kind loving child & has a great personality. Times still get tough, he wakes up in the night every night, needs sensory stimulation, struggles with transition & loud noises which he wears ear defenders for, he lashes out hurting himself and others, he doesn't eat, drink or go potty anywere accept home or mcdonalds (which he loves). He also struggles with asthma and has since 8 weeks old .. The hospital is our second home but he copes with it ever so well. He loves trains and cars, sensory rooms and tents, lights he is addicted to and is a right ladies man at nursery. He is our boy and we wouldn't change him for the world!!
