Sharing recipes, crafts and frugal living, the challenges and triumphs of parenting a neurotypical child and a child on the Autism Spectrum. Yoga Instructor said goodbye to her nightly glass of Chardonnay to give up habits that were not serving her purpose in life! The CocktailMom name remains, however with a new focus on healthy and authentic living.

Holding on to Hope


This is a video about Taylor, a 17 year old girl who at age 2 was diagnosed as being on the Autism spectrum and given little hope of recovery. Now she is a top student, an athlete, and a creative artist.
Thank you Taylor for making this video, it's very insightful and gives parents like me Hope.

Thank you so much for sharing this!

Can you tell me how I post the actual you tube post in my blog instead of just a link? Would love to share this with other bloggers.

At the very end of the video, copy and paste the code under the word "embed" on the upper right hand side into your blog post. Let me know if that works for you. Thanks!!

Wow! Such an enlightening young lady. Thank you for posting this-as I have a son who is 7 with Aspergers. I read your blog and appreciate your sending this out!! Sometimes I have to remind myself that the way I think and feel need to be revisited, and this surely did help.
