I set up my Ellensdays blog five years ago because I felt that I had a story to tell about autism and how it affected my and my family’s everyday lives.  Everyone with autism is different and so everyone’s experiences are different too and all equally interesting and valid.

I also had just learned about Relationship Development Intervention (RDI) a technique that involves lots of guiding and re-thinking about how I overcompensate for my daughter and the blog helps to motivate me in my tasks.
