Hiding inside herself

Even though the picture does not show it, Maddux was hiding in there just waiting to come out and amaze us! She was like this for 2 years but not solely because of autism. We lost Maddux to seizures long before we lost her to Autism. I think that is why the Autism diagnosis was not a shock to us. I was happy to finally have her pediatrician not look at me like I was crazy. Part of me wanted to go by and say "See, I told you something was wrong." But now it was up to us to "fix" it. And that is what we did.
