Unexpected Life

My name is Susie. I am married to a wonderful man, Patrick, and the mother of an amazing 5 (now 7!) year old boy, Liam, who is severely affected by regressive autism. This blog is going to be used to share our triumphs & daily struggles. Hopes for Liam. Recipes & resources. We live as naturally & organically as we can, believing strongly that this will be the greatest gift we can give our sweet son. Thank you for visiting. I hope you enjoy it!
