This is Elaine Powell and her 8-year-old son, Maxfield. Max has Asperger’s Syndrome.
Elaine, whose nickname is “calla” on Trusera.com, shares her story for the first time on video. She’s a single mom to two kids – her older daughter might have Asperger’s, too – and was laid off from her job at a printing company earlier this year. Hear Elaine talk about her insights - which disciplinary approaches work for her child (and which don’t!), and the hope she has for the future, and her struggles - not having health insurance, how long it took Max to get diagnosed (years, not months!) and her loneliness. Presented by Trusera.com, the online network where you can find and share real-world experiences with others who have been there. Come. Listen. Share. http://www.trusera.com/health/collections/asperger-s
