The podcast is designed to connect with families who have been touched by autism and people who want to learn more about their world. You'll learn all about how they deal with day to day challenges and how you might apply it to your own life. It also sheds light on the "Mommy and Daddy" perspectives of parenting on the autism spectrum.

E135: Insight How We are Parenting Autism While Fighting Cancer
In this episode, we update the listeners on how Bryce is doing on Sandy's cancer journey (Waldenström Macroglobulinemia). He is participating in Special Olympics again and enjoyed a recent EAA flight with more scheduled for this spring.
We talk about Bryce's progress with initialing conversations as he continues to expand his English vocabulary and improve his reading skills.
It's important to share how life continues in this new season of our autism journey. We know we are not the only parents who have had a health crisis or other unexpected personal change that has impacted their parenting. We continue to trust the Lord and His plan for us as we take one day at a time.
You can reach out directly to us if you want to purchase a signed edition of our book, "PARENTING AUTISM: The Early Years." We have several Author copies available.
Bryce is a funny, mechanical, HAPPY little guy who was diagnosed with autism at age two and is now eleven years old. His pure joy makes this world a much better place!
We are humbled and honored to follow our calling and be Autism Ambassadors while helping others understand our world a little more than they did before listening to the podcast. We also feel called to bring light to a community that has experienced dark days after the "diagnosis". (Luke 1:79)
