Three

Three days left until Hope's Intensive. The Dad left with everybody at 9 am this morning to go to Six Flags and I stayed home. Still resting and recovering, storing up energy for the Intensive. A very dear friend messaged The Dad and told him it was necessary. Hopefully it will help me through the next two weeks. I am not sure why he thinks Hope is up to Six Flags, especially without me, but I am hoping it works out and everybody has a nice time.


Tomorrow, I will post a GB update. Although she will be in Philly with us, by necessity, she won't really be involved in Hope's intensive.

Another trauma mama reflected on taking her kids to Disneyland. She said it was a win because so many neurotypical kids act horrible at the park her kids did not stand out!
I do know as a trauma kid that I loooove rollercoasters and anything that goes fast and scares me. It is so great to feel the adrenaline without having a person to be scared of. Perhaps Hope will get the same relief as I did.

Philly! That's 20 minutes from me! Wow, I'd love to pick your brain & have a drink if you were coming under better circumstances. Good luck. Good luck. Good luck!

Sorry for the dumb question, but what does "hope is up to six flags" means ?

GB's Mom said...

Giulia- Hope has a hard time self regulating when there is alot of stimulus around. She also ha a hard time making good decisions unless kept on a short leash (figuratively)

Giulia said...

Thank you GB's mom. So if I understood well, "six flags" means the degree of supervision she needs ?
Just to be sure I have understood everything....

Six flags is an amusement park

Thank you, Rosalie. I didn't catch it earlier.
I wonder why I didn't catch it earlier, but never mind...

Lol, I should have been more specific.
