The Spectrum Reality

By: Stefanie
  • Summary

  • Hi I'm mum to nine year old daughter Amelia. Amelia was diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder when she was four years old. On The Spectrum Reality I will talk about the issues I face day to day as a parent with a child on the spectrum. I will discuss the experiences I've encountered from the time of diagnoses to now. The most important message I've learned through all of this is that I'm not alone. So join me as I share my journey on the Spectrum Reality.
