HI, I'M JASON!
I have been writing about parenthood with two young special needs kids since I became a father in 2008. Jonny is now 15 and has a rare condition called Kabuki Syndrome. Jonah (10) was nonverbal and diagnosed with Autism in 2016. This blog is a chronicle of our special needs journey together. I mostly post my thoughts on Facebook, but you will also find those posts here.
We are an Ausome Family. We run on an abundance of coffee, loads of patience, a lot of love, and a “Touch of Ausome.”
Thank you for coming on this epic journey with us!
