the Journey of JoJo

Day one, diagnosis I knew would becoming but not really prepared
Day two... bed
Day three... bed
Day four... out of bed, its time to fight for my child
Side note JoJo is a twin to a neurotypical brother
Several weeks later speech, occupational, and behavioral therapies all set up
Months and months no progress
At age 3 they move him to elementary school
I am terrified!
Week 2.....and heres where it begins, he brings me to a wall in the class with the alphabet and starts reciting it... WHAT? This child has not said a word since 18 months
JoJo is 5 now and WOW!
I pray for and thank those wonderful teachers every night in my prayers!
I can go on and on but the lesson here is find the ones who truly love what they do for our kids and the rest will find a way!
