Sudden Silence
Jun 19, 2023 Season 2 Episode 45
Jennifer & Phil w/ guest Samantha Shewmake

Samantha realizes an inexplicable and sudden change in one of her sons, Grant: he stops talking. This leads her down an unrelenting investigation, spanning months, before arriving at the answer: "moderately autistic". She then begins her journey of learning how to best meet Grant's special needs without sacrificing love & attention for his brother, Jude.

One resource Samantha found helpful in the journey of her son's autism was the advocacy group, Families Helping families.  Here's a link to the New Orleans Area https://fhfofgno.org/

Hyundai of Metairie
A premier Louisiana Hyundai dealer, with a huge selection of new & used vehicles to choose from.
