Title: Queen

Bio: I'm a mother of four beautiful children. A teenage daughter, 9 year old son, and 4 and 5 year old boys with autism. I'm juggling a lot, and sometimes I drop it all! Oh, and I'm transforming my former 300 pound body into a more healthy 155 pounds. Doctors orders! Only 105 more pounds to lose - and I won't miss them!

Our friend, Harrison, is playing the drums in this video. We want to say thank you for the wonderful support we get from our friends, family, and our community.

Without this support we would NEVER have made it this far.

Our two boys (3 & 4 years old) have autism. We're asking for help with medical bills that are not covered by health insurance. Speech, occupational, physical, and behavioral therapy for children with autism is not covered by health insurance in 36 states in the United States. We must take a stand against this discrimination! Autism IS treatable!
