Hello Magdelaine1173, God bless you, and thank you for your note! I am sorry to hear about your nephew. I trust that all will go well with him. I understand many children with autism go on to productive lives. We even met a gentleman a few years ago who had been autistic as a child, and was now married, with children, and leading a productive life. To answer your question: At first, when we had our son evaluated, it was thought that our son may have been autistic. They put procedures in place to treat him and evaluate him further. They then told us that it did not appear that he was autistic, but he still needed special education to get him focused. There are more issues, but we’ve been given to understand that with time the other issues will abate with other proper educational protocols. I will also include your nephew in my prayers! Again, I trust all will go well with him! God bless you! You are a caring and wonderful aunt! I will keep praying to St. Anthony for my son also! Thank you for your note again!I understand the problems of special needs children. Does he have Autism by any chance? My nephew has Autism, and I say chaplets to St. Anthony for him. May I include your son in a general chaplet to St. Anthony today? I am hoping it will help your son.
PRAYER OF CONFIDENCE
TO SAINT ANTHONY
Most holy St. Anthony, Beloved Friend of Jesus,
I place myself in your heavenly care.
Be with me, especially in life’s troubles and difficulties.
Intercede before the Lord for me,
so that I may confidently know I do not face my problems alone.
I join my prayers to yours, O Great Saint,
as I ask God to give me consolation in times of sorrow,
courage when I am afraid,
and healing from all the ills that afflict me.
Obtain for me from God, Most High,
the grace to accept whatever is God’s holy will
for me and my loved ones.
Strengthen my faith so that I will never despair,
but always have hope in God’s healing presence and power in my life.
Amen.
May your son progress in his development and be able to communicate with you and your family. Have patience, I know how hard it is. Keep praying to St. Anthony, he can help.
