Autism Awareness

April 30, 2010
From three weeks old to 6 months old, little Caitlin screamed pretty much nonstop. She did not want to be swaddled or rocked, but would feel comforted or secure when placed in a swing and left alone. “The doctors told us that this was just classic colic and that this too shall pass,” Caitlin’s mother Monica Lemmon said. “So, we endured the screaming and arching back and the endless vomiting — hoping, praying and, yes, assuming that it would indeed pass.”
