Episode 9 | Becky + Cash
"I'm excited that God is laying out the foundation for my future life and I'm following His plan; I'm just sticking to His schedule" Cash 16 years old
On this episode, I talk with Becky and Cash. Cash is an amazing 16 year old young man who loves working on planes, building and creating, swimming, hunting, and hiking. He recently won Reserve Champion with his goat at the county fair and has a full-time job helping his Grandpa Bill on the farm.
Cash was never formally diagnosed because he didn't meet enough of the markers for autism, but thankfully his mom was introduced to a friend who was an occupational therapist and believed Cash had Sensory Processing Disorder. Due to not having a diagnosis, Cash didn't qualify for formal intervention, but Becky's friend gave her exercises to do with Cash. They created an environment at home that would help Cash to be successful outside of the home. Becky has homeschooled Cash the entire time and it has really helped him to learn in ways that work best for him.
I hope you will enjoy this episode, and if you're in the beginning years of working with your child, Becky wants to encourage you, that your hard work will pay off and things will get easier.
