0:07
well there goes a and these favorite
0:10
things that he loves doing is anything
0:12
to do with like Lego or just building
0:16
things like that some of the challenges
0:18
that I feel that we faced is definitely
0:21
just the anxiety levels that Diego has
0:24
when he's around large numbers of people
0:26
he was like eating textures smells
0:29
brushing of teeth now that was just
0:33
wouldn't happen things that we take a
0:36
grant it can be overwhelming for Diego
0:38
which is a common trait of autism
0:44
Diego's behavior since being a part of
0:48
North Scott and working with them has
0:50
dramatically changed our life as a
0:52
family has changed little things along
0:55
the way was just helping find out why he
0:57
was melting down and how we could
1:00
overcome that if i was going food
1:02
shopping obviously diego just wouldn't
1:04
come so we sort of had to take that
1:06
focus of everything that he was focusing
1:09
on and just bring it back to okay we're
1:12
here for just a quick trip will write a
1:14
list out and you can help mommy do the
1:17
list and that worked a treat oh my god
1:20
that was the first time that we honestly
1:22
could go food shopping so little things
1:25
like that had made a huge difference
1:29
basically we're really after family we
1:31
love being outdoors one of the things
1:32
that we really enjoy doing is bike
1:34
riding that's just that's our love
1:36
because it's something that we all
1:38
enjoyed and it was it was a trial and
1:41
error for him to
1:43
learn and to get him to learn to ride
1:45
the bike but essentially what had
1:46
happened when he started to learn that
1:49
happened up a whole new area for
1:53
something for us to do on the weekends
1:54
and that really made a big difference
1:56
too and we all come back as a family it
1:58
was like where we all went out together
2:00
the greatest attribute that I think has
2:03
come from northcott is that Diego's
2:06
quality in life is actually dramatically
2:08
changed which at the end of the day I
2:10
think that's the most important thing
2:12
and northcott has certainly done that
2:20
