Angel Baby: An Autism Care Relationship

Blair & Rubia had questions about their son Benny’s development.

As a toddler, he wasn’t yet speaking. Maybe, they thought, he’s just taking after his dad in learning to speak later than expected. He had learned to walk fast — maybe speech would come soon?

Autism crossed their minds, but if it was autism, what would his life look like? Would he be able to get care and would his needs be understood?

Fear of a complex condition like autism is overwhelming, but Blair & Rubia are grateful they “got to work” to diagnose Benny early — which led to a connection with a specialized Lucet care manager for autism.
