We're in business!

We've FINALLY hired a home therapist for Jesse! Yay! I won't use her name here unless and until she gives me permission, so for now I'll call her HT. We interviewed 3 people for the position. Any one of them would have been wonderful, I believe. It was a really hard decision to make. But there was just something about HT, and this position working for our family fits perfectly with her schedule. Her references all gave glowing recommendations. She starts working with us on Monday. It's a great day to start too! She'll come to Jesse's 8:30 a.m. speech therapy session, then get to meet Jesse's senior therapist (ST) and her mentor. Then in the late afternoon she can go with me to the "Making Connections in Autism" program offered at the Janeway.

I'm actually getting kind of excited about this. I think that this will be great for Jesse. He's been making great strides already these past 2 months. So this is probably just going to help him all that much more.

I still have to post about Jesse's ISSP meeting. I do have the report from that now. I have a 4 day weekend coming up, so I'll try posting it then.

G'nite!
