After meeting with Blaze's new case manager at the Autism Center, I learned some interesting facts. Did you know that autism is more common in deaf children than hearing children? I had no idea.
Deaf with Autism occurs in 1 in 59 children. Info taken from www.autismspeaks.org

I will continue to add to this list.
Trust in the LORD with all thine heart;and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him,and he will direct thy paths. ~Proverbs 3:5-6
