As a parent it can make you feel so helpless. I felt absolutely horrible because my son had strep 2 months ago and I had no idea! It wasn't until I got it myself that I realized he did too. He never tells me when things hurt or if he's feeling sick.
I feel like it’s one of the toughest things not knowing if or why your kid is in pain. B has had strep in the past and her only symptom we knew about was vomiting. If she did not do that, we may have not known either.
We are an autism family as well. Our oldest is non verbal and youngest can talk. It is very different. Jordan can’t tell us what is wrong either. The only people who get it are other autism parents.
I'm sorry about the sickness. I hope you escaped it and Stacey and Braylee are feeling much better today. It was so nice to see that little bird enjoying the feeder. Perhaps word will spread and you soon will have more than one visitor.
So perfect pitch (absolute pitch) are two completely different things. Braylee not being familiar with the scale makes it impossible for her to have absolute pitch, because that requires naming a note when it's heard. However, relative pitch is being able to reproduce a sound after it's heard (time span doesn't matter), and be perfectly on pitch. You don't need to know the scale to have perfect relative pitch. I personally believe it's highly possible that Braylee had perfect relative pitch.
I hear you regarding feeling ISOLATED. I live alone in a 25ft motorhome with only my best friend Finn. Oh, Finn is my Service Dog. I need Hospice Care now, but because it is so called, not Terminal, I live in horrible pain. I also live with Complex PTSD. Overwhelm and Meltdowns are a daily thing. I HATE the medical System. It's so BROKEN. SO I UNDERSTAND ISOLATION. Hey miss B. Sorry you feel yucky.
I think Braille's musical talent is in this Gift from God category. She does not need music training right now. Her musical vocalizations are her own it is wonderful when you hear her.. because she is sharing her gift. Having perfect pitch happens with kids and whether it is an asset in music training or makes no difference in the scope of things is debatable. IMO'' you are so encourage her to do things she loves.....that is your support!
Thank you for sharing your experience. I don’t think parents are appreciated enough. So I wanted to say you both are doing your best and that is amazing! Keep it up! ❤
Daughter had a virus to . I feel since she 14 almost 15 getting some what easy because when she gets sick she stays and bed rather then doing her favorite chair that she does circle in . Really good about doing ice pops and eating dry foods when needing to get on her feet even better than me . Hope Braylee feels better .
Have you tried the Pedialyte packets? I like those a lot. They come in different flavors (I like the apple one hehee). And for wasps, I have this thing that I think is called a wasp deterrant and it is kind of shaped like a balloon, but it's more like the material a paper lantern is like. It is kinda greenish/tanish, but it looks enough like a wasp's nest that wasps won't want to start a new one near it. I mean I'm in California so I don't know if we have different regional wasps but you might want to look into that. It's worked for the past 10+ years, fingers crossed. I hope Braylee and Stacy feel better soon!
i hope braylee feels better. being sick is not fun at all. i pray for people all the time and when i go to bed. i have special needs too. i thought i let you guys know. but like i said. i will pray for braylee tonight just for you guys. and please appricate my praying cuz i love praying for people and hang in there ❤🥰
Michigan girl here and I use this stuff called Biffin I t. I spray my yard, outside around the house and the house, safe for flower beds ,gadens and such. Kills mosquitoes and all other bugs including ticks and wasps.😊
You can acknowledge how hard it is to not know how Braylee is feeling without blaming her. It is harder for a parent to help their child when the parent doesn't know how their child needs help.
Hey, Wee Family👋🙂! Here’s a name for the chickadee : add a “y” to chirp and call it “ Chirpy’🙂! I hope Braylee feels better and I’ll be praying for her. Hope you all are doing well and will be praying for you as well..Love you all and God bless✝️❤️🙂👍🌈a!
I have Autism & Hypersensitivities to lots of foods/drinks. I need to take electrolytes frequently (almost everyday) for my POTS and other medical conditions. I have found that the pre-prepared liquid electrolytes like pedalyte or hydralyte in the liquid form are way too strong and overpowering for me. Instead I buy the tablet (dissolvable) versions and dilute in a LOT more water than suggested like 1L instead of the 250mls suggested. I also absolutely can’t stand some flavours over others and the ‘unflavoured’ or ‘no taste’ or lemonade versions are actually the worst tasting to me because they actually taste nothing like those things. Personally I like the Hydralyte Strawberry Kiwi & Fuzzy Peach flavours the best as they are sweet without the horrible sickening aftertaste. I’ve found the Blackcurrant & Lime flavours seem to be popular with other people. If you can I’d recommend seeing if you can buy a sample pack or ask your local chemist if they have any samples of different electrolyte brands/flavours to see if there’s a particular flavour or brand that she may prefer over another. To me just a different brand and flavour makes it go from absolutely impossible to drink and vomit inducing to tolerable to drink litres of it everyday (for example after 1 sip of Voost I knew it was a no go forever for me!) I also find mixing with a similar flavoured drink rather than water makes it way better (for example mixing the blackcurrant flavour with blackcurrant juice. Alternatively a non caffeine Powerade or Gatorade do essentially the same thing except I find that those types of drinks usually have a much stronger and richer taste (and not in a good way), so for me personally I avoid those. I know you don’t mix non-preferred foods into Braylee’s safe foods but if you can find a flavoured juice or drink that she doesn’t already drink, it may be worth mixing the electrolyte solution into that to see if she would prefer it over drinking a straight electrolyte solution.
My granddaughter has been sick this last week and is on antibiotics and she will not take medication, so they have to sneak it in her chocolate milk. Sometimes she can tell and won’t drink it.
She’s very very sensitive to taste. Unfortunately if we did that, we would lose her trust and she would stop trying new things to eat and drink. She would also not eat or drink anything we prepare for her. We learned that years ago when we tried to mix extra things in.

Thank you for the reminder that we're not alone and other parents are going through it too.
Awww poor Braylee! Great job trying the pedialyte! I hope she feels better real soon! Keep singing sweetie! ❤😊
It's so cool that the chickadee came to the feeder!

I pray to God for the good health of your family. Hope you all be good soon. 🌻
Oh David I hear you. I’m a single mum of 5 children. 2 on the spectrum and other things like OCD. I absolutely dread sickness in the house.
I see you too😊❤
Good video. Braylee is so sweet
Prayers ❤
Braylee has been able to sing since she was very young. I have remarked on her singing several times.
I remember the first time she sang like it was yesterday. 🙂
Yep it is challenging I feel you my daughters the same she can't talk to tell me that she's sick and that too

My yard is on a woods line so I deal with lots of bugs.

Try fresh, high quality bird seec. A small water dish of c!ean water for drinking and bathing is good for attracting birds
Its so lonely,and exausting. I just had spine surgery,and my kiddo has been sick 10 days. She cannot tell me hasnt eaten in 10 days We are struggling.

Find out if there is a skin test can be done to see if she is allergic to wasp.
When your sick like that don't forget 2 switch out 2 new toothbrushes!!
If she drinks Gatorade, it's better tasting than Pedialyte.
Chip chickadee
If you haven't looked into gestalt language processing, that can go into B being drawn to singing/intonation.
Skin so soft original from Avon should keep the wasp away
Churpin Chip
Leave the wasp nests up!! Wasps won't build where a nest is already built. You can buy fake wasp nests or dyi them
I know exactly what you’re talking about. Eli is six and autistic and he’ll throw up and then lay back down in it.
It’s such a tough thing.
Let her make juice with the Pedi light she will never know...
She’s very very sensitive to taste. Unfortunately if we did that, we would lose her trust and she would stop trying new things to eat and drink. She would also not eat or drink anything we prepare for her. We learned that years ago when we tried to mix extra things in.
And She has a very weak immune system We are heqlthy a week out the month longest weve gone was 3 weeks.
how about Flix!
