Allicia talks about her dog..................

I have a dog named Chance Snoopy. I take care of him, I pay for his food and vet bills, and he sleeps with me every night. I got Chance because I know I can never take care of my own kids and I don't think I should have any. I wanted to take care of something and Chance came into my life. He was rescued as a puppy and I got him from my Mom's cousin in Indiana. They rescued Chance and I went out to take him home. He loves me and he does whatever I ask even when I want to go to bed early and he is playing with our other dog Tucker. Chance will go to bed with me and he protects me.

Here I am with my roommate Hillary(left) and her cat Cinnamon and my dog Chance.

In the beginning........

This is the beginning of our blog as family and friends of Allicia. Allicia was diagnosed with a disability at 11 months old. She has gone through many challenges and changes. We sought a label for many years. Doctors thought she had suffered from a reaction to medicine. We really think that is true and it created her to have autism. Allicia also has dyslexia and cannot read and write. We thought bringing her life to a blog site would help her family and friends as well as Allicia to process her life changes and connect with others like herself.

As the blog is developed it is our aim to share what Allicia is facing and questions she has.

Three years ago Allicia decided to have a rommate. Her roommate has a disability as well and they face many challenges trying to find jobs, having relationships and learning to be independent.
