I have tried to type a response to you but every time I get close to finishing it I lose it ...the first time it sent back your quote as my reply! Maybe I'll try again later on my desktop instead of my iPad...maybe will be different.

Sorry you are having trouble posting.

What a blessing it must have been in that doctors office to have the first glimmer of hope. Not to mention all the wonderful "clicks" along the way! What a journey you have been on! I applaud you for the endless efforts you had to make to get your boy where he is today. So much love a mother has for her child. God bless you and thank you for sharing your story. It really touched me, no way I can even begin to know the struggles but my heart goes out to you. Who would have thought these amazing birds could be a pawn in this miracle, so awesome!!

Thank you for your kind words and encouragement. I really don't feel like I deserve.. I only did/do what any mom would do for their baby.
It has been a journey... One I am excited to say is not near over. I have such high hopes for my son.
I really hope that others will consider therapy flocks for their families. Or at least get in their heads that guineas are not so un-trainable.
They are amazing birds if you give them the chance.

I believe most people with challenges such as yours give up and let it be a caregiver's problem or job. Yes, you are to be applauded as I have worked in the healthcare buiness and more often than not parents are self obsorbed and give up. You made this a priority and may God bless you as I am sure He has for doing so. Not only are you helping your child but teaching others a way to help theirs.. Yea guineas!!

Thank you again...
But I am only doing what any Mom would do... In my eyes at least.
I do hope that others will find how beneficial guineas are to people with special needs.
If a flock of guineas can help one person... It is worth it.
