When I experienced the slow deterioration in my child’s health, I felt so alone. I couldn’t figure out what was wrong with my son exactly, or the cause of his sensory reactive issues. But I knew the chaos inside my child was coming out and spilling into every area of our life from the minute he woke up until the minute he finally, finally fell asleep. I was constantly worried, anxious, stressed out and inwardly grieving over his reactive sensory life. Where had my happy boy gone, I wondered? I watched his pain and just cringed. Most days, I wanted to crawl into a corner and hide, wishing someone else could take over parenting.

 I loved my little one deeply—exactly as he was. Yet I knew that something had changed within him and I would have done anything for him to feel better and be restored in his health and sunny demeanor again. In fact, I searched far and wide to minimize the strife and disorder inside of him which also seeped into my home. We had what some call a “differently wired”, overly reactive kid with sensory issues. Even the brightness of the sun was a problem and, living in Arizona, there's no getting away from that. I finally learned he had Sensory Processing Disorder (SPD). He experienced continuous screaming and high levels of irritation over little things, had a need for risky physical activity and rarely slowed down or stopped his movement. On top of that he had chronic stomach aches and digestion issues and the root of his illness went much deeper. I wore my fears for my child on my sleeve every day. 

Eventually, I learned that there was a much bigger issue I was battling, one that was trying to take over who my son was designed to be from the beginning of time. John 10:10 says, “The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly.” 

I learned that it was NOT God’s plan for my son to stay sick, nor was it His doing. I grasped on to faith that my son and our life didn’t have to stay the way they were: under chronic stress, irritation, chaos, sickness - of which I often could not even identify the cause. I had tried. I changed the diet, incorporated different medications or supplements, went to multiple doctors. I rearranged my house, my schedule and my life to accommodate this SPD "thing" that just had to be dealt with. But I never really put my finger on the underlying issue. It just boggled my mind and rended my heart.

I wondered if there was anyone out there that would truly understand what I was going through and not just give me the big harry eyeball with that unspoken judgement. If you’ve got a sensory reactive kid, you know exactly what I'm talking about—the look that says in a silent language: "You're a bad parent and your kid is unruly. Get it together!" 

I didn’t just want a temporary fix for my SPD kid to cope. Compression shirts, weighted blankets, boxes stuffed with pillows and blankets, spinning contraptions, dark tents with stretchy tunnels, supplements or CBD oil were not the answer I was looking for. I wanted total restoration of health in my child.                     

My deepest desire is to be a lifeline in the overwhelm, no matter the name of the sickness your child is dealing with. I don't want to just teach you how to cope with your child's sickness. I want to show you that you can have HOPE for a different reality! Most of what I have to share with you isn't practical at all. In fact, it's super-natural. In January of 2019, my (then) 4-year-old son was completely and radically healed. I'd like to share more of my story with you. I don't believe that this miracle from God was a fluke thing that just happened for us. I fully believe that YOUR child can also be completely, 100% healed and restored to their original design. God is just that good! He wants your child healthy, healed and whole. It IS God’s will in this life! You don't have to beg Him for healing. You don't have to question God as to whether or not he wants to heal your child. 

The really crazy thing is, it was already done. 1 Peter 2:24 says, “By [Jesus’] stripes you were healed.”

You won't find religion here...you'll only find faith through Spirit and truth. Let me help you step into the realm of possibility. Take a walk with me. I'm here to be a guide, a support, an encourager, a cheerleader and a faith-builder! Let's journey through the scriptures together and see what the Lord, through His bible, His very Word has to share with you for such a time as this.
