My new HOPE is to make an awareness of SPD Sensory Processing Disorder (Because I love my son) He experiences life in a different way. Relying on his senses, witch in description: response to the outside influences around him. This is going to be amazing ride of ups and downs and I want to be the person who Speaks so we can be awakened to what is going on around us.If I can help one person's day go better or they say something that touches me it's worth it. Creating a bond of understanding and connecting with each other through what you are going through. To see what is right in front of us, the people, GOD created, his own creation, Created in his own image, yet all in different ways. We face a lot of challenges on a daily basis and through our pain GOD gives us strength. Not to become a spectacle but help us over come these issues together and not alone. That is why I want to SPEAK! To give my son a voice to something he doesn't understand. He doesn't know why he needs the stimulation of motion, sound, taste, sight, smell, joint pressure, or some other kind of stimulation to one of his senses. HE JUST KNOWS HE DOES! THAT IS HIS DRIVING FORCE TO COPE! Comparison: you need gas to drive your car, to make it work or move. He needs satisfaction from one or many of his senses. I've watch him so many times fascinated and frustrated with how his mind works. How he dose things or how he acts in different situations. Sometimes in GROUPS of people it's like it is to much stimulation FOR PEOPLE TO BE IN HIS SPACE! NOT INCLUDING THE SOUNDS, THE VISUALS, THE SMELLS, AND SO ON. also because he can't control what sense he needs at that time HIS MIND IS ALWAYS RUNNING LIKE AN ENGINE. I WANT TO TAKE YOU ON A JOURNEY OF WHAT IT'S LIKE TO HAVE SPD AND HOW MY SON IS WONDERFULLY AND BEAUTIFULLY MADE. Thank you for reading my post and I look forward to what is to come of this burning desire to advocate for my son Sebastian Jay Humphreys.
God Bless Rachel H.
