"When I think about Ben, I sometimes wonder how he would have developed if they had been satisfied with the standard of care that we (the Early Intervention team) would have provided him. I can't help but feel a little guilty that they were the ones who provided me, the professional, with the best treatment sessions I have ever had with a child with autism. As an Occupational Therapist, I could provide families with recommendations to assist with the sensory component of autism...but that was like fighting a forest fire with a water hose. In the children with autism that I have treated since Ben, I was able to tell about the wonderful things that this mother of a child with autism taught me..."
