This is really and truly difficult to write. Our (surprise for the kids) trip is in 10 days. But instead of jumping up and down like I have in the past, I'm anxious and nervous. One of our kiddos has classic autism (and epilepsy and other medical issues). Over the last few months he has been experiencing a pretty extreme regression, getting more severe in the last week. To the point that we are considering eating the $200+ it'd cost us to postpone our trip. We have been to WDW twice as a family and both times were wonderful. He talks about the parks and searches out youtube videos, but in general has been pretty unhappy lately, impulse control, scripting from sunup 'til sundown (yes we have spoken at length with his drs and we are working on it). Has anyone else on this board dealt with a regression prior to a trip, still gone, and had a great time? I don't want to take everyone and have any member of the family feel like it was more of a trial than a trip. I guess I just need to hear some BTDT feedback! And some pixie dust...could use some of that. Thanks DISers.
