Blake.... He has so many challenges he faces everyday ...the greatest challenge is his extreme sensitivity to people talking, coughing or throat clearing.... These cause him such intense anxiety that he can become aggressive to himself or others... He isnt able to do anything out in society he stays in almost constant guard with worry about it.... We are always riding the roller coaster of medication trying to weigh out the benefits verses the horrible sides affects .....trying to find anything that he will like or enjoy on an ongoing basis is just a tough one... He just isnt able to settle down long enough to enjoy much of anything... So when I say this is big THIS IS BIG for us.... I have been able to get Blake to spend at least fifteen mins with me walking around outside in the yard with me every afternoon... He will even hold HIS dogs leash as we walk ... Yes it is His dog Tolllie but if you were to ask her Blake is hers and if she thinks your going to get close and shouldnt she will let you know it!!! I just have to brag.... These may seem small accomplishments to others but for us it is big! I pray for Gods guidance pushing forward to find medicines that will help him with his life of such isolation and so many challenges and that God will give me direction to continue making small strides that will give him and me hope for a better tomorrow!!!!
