there's
an eerie silence indoors and no one is bouncing off the walls. Or in our case
only one child out of 2 who have ASD are running on full cylinders. For some it
may be a relief to have a child that is constantly on the go, zonked out on the
floor but I have to say I've missed the energy of our 5 year old.
He's
been struck down with a high temperature since Sunday night and is now on
antibiotics for tonsillitis. He was not impressed with his medicine as instead
of the normal yellow coloured one, he was given pink medicine. He informs me
it is girls' medicine so he can't take it!! With some persuasion and incentives
he now has two days worth of antibiotics inside him and he has improved today
and his cheeky ways are slowly returning. By the weekend he will no doubt be
trying to be Spider-Man and I'll be tearing my hair out, but I would much
rather have a happy, hyperactive boy who goes into frequent meltdowns than a
boy who just flops on the floor.
