Our family journey started when our youngest son was just 3 months old. What started as an unnoticed "fascination" with a fan or anything that spins, soon became an obvious fixation. Speech was delayed, as was walking. As he got older, the nursery school environment was difficult for him and it manifested in what was perceived as behavioral issues, which escalated to the point of requiring in-class assistance.

​

We waited for his two-year-old screening, hoping this would finally shed light on what we were navigating. He completed not even half of the test and we were certain more testing would come. Instead, a few weeks later, we received a letter in the mail confirming that he had passed and there was nothing for us to be concerned about.

 

However, we knew better. 

 

Just after his 4th birthday, we were finally able to get an overseas referral, which confirmed multiple diagnosis, including Autism, Sensory Processing Disorder (SPD) and Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). 

​

Our journey, like so many others, is not just about a diagnosis. It is about unlocking the tools that early intervention provides access to, learning HOW to be an advocate and finding others who are simply walking the same journey.

Thus, All The Feels, a support-focused community, intended to provide one-step access to the resources and products required to support our little superheroes, was born.
