Autism-And-Grandparents...Play A Role In Helping Your Children And Your GrandchildrenMany grandparents have read my book, Finding God In Autism. My book was written to the parents but it is easy for you to glean much from the book. You can pray for your family. God has given you wisdom in your years. You can read books and when the time is right, give the important information to your son or your daughter. We find it very hard to find time to read and it is hard to learn when we are exhausted and sleep deprived! You can learn about the diet that is important for us to do with our children. You can support us with the food choices that we must make to make our children healthy. You can bring us a meal, do laundry or take your grandchild overnight. My parents take our children overnight one night a month. They get a hotel room for me and my husband. We meet my parents at a hotel and have dinner with them and the kids. Then, my parents take our kids home overnight and my husband and I pick the kids up no later than noon the next day. It is a huge respite for me and my husband! Something we look forward to every time! But more than that...honestly...it is the prayers of grandma and grandpa that mean the most to me. They pray for me and my family. They pray for us daily and they interceed with prayer to our almighty God. My book, Finding God In Autism teaches parents about going to God for fourty consecutive days. You as a grandma or grandpa can do this study and interceed for your child and your grandchild for fourty consecutive days. God will move mountains when generations are involved. I believe that with all of my heart. I would love to hear the testimonies from those of you who are interceeding in prayer for your grandchildren. You can get my book and then pass it onto your child to read when you are done. Autism affects the entire family. Autism-and-grandparents...the whole family wants the children healed. |
