My son Reef was diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder just after his 2nd birthday. This changed our lives and the course of my career forever. At the time I was working for an inpatient hospital and loved my job. After our son had been diagnosed, it became harder and harder to balance several hours a week of multiple therapies for our son and maintain working full time. I threw myself into learning everything I could about each therapy I could find for Autism. Within six months, our family relocated from our home in North Carolina to Cape Cod, Massachusetts. I again began setting our son up with all the services that the doctors and specialists recommended. At that time, he was receiving close to 30 hours a week of ABA therapy, Speech therapy, and Occupational therapy.
