I could relate the two now. And I finally found the word I was looking for.

My Journey with My Autistic Son

[fa icon="calendar'] Nov 11, 2020 10:09:07 AM / by Eblity posted in Caring For Your Children, Slice Of Life

I am from Balikpapan, Indonesia and I am a mother of two children. My first child is a girl and my second child is a boy. We realized there was something wrong with my second child when he was two years old. He liked spinning the wheel of a toy car for hours instead of playing with it. He also liked walking in circles and only stopped when you held him. He never responded when we called his name. We did not think his actions and responses were unusual. We thought if we waited, these actions and responses would change as he grew older. We were wrong. After 6 months, he remained the same. So, we decided to bring him to a pediatrician and after examining him, he diagnosed my son as having autism. He was two and a half years old.

4 Reasons To Pick A Non-Emergency Ambulance

[fa icon="calendar'] Mar 1, 2019 4:52:39 PM / by Teo Youliang Hakim posted in Slice Of Life

When we’re thinking of sending someone to the hospital to receive medical attention, it’s natural for us to call for an ambulance. However, do you know that there are non-emergency ambulances as well? For cases that are mild in nature, it would be a waste of resources to send a normal ambulance, which is usually reserved for life-threatening emergencies.
