Sean and his biscuit crackers

        It's been a long time since my autistic son, Sean, didn't eat rice. He just refuse to change his daily menu, this is call sameness. He only eats crunchy food which makes cracking sound in his mouth, such as biscuit crackers or 'keropok'/snack. Of course we don't encourage our kids to eat 'keropok', it's not healthy anyway. So, we bought this crackers for him as his daily meal. Worry about his balance nutrition, we also give him multivitamin. I've tried give him rice and noodles, he spit it out, and this makes me furious sometimes. But I won't give up though. It's no point forcing him to eat anyway. But thank God, he loves to drink milk, 5 to 6 times a day...;)....

All types of biscuit crackers

Crackers anywhere, anytime

        Everyday, I'll prepare his 3 meals. Hoping that one day miracle happens. It did happened!!..It was on Sunday night, 15/7/2012, when 4 of us, myself, hubby, Sean and Shenna went out for dinner at nearby cafe. Sean is always sitting between me and hubby, have to. Suddenly he grabbed my hand and pushed me to a bowl of rice. I was wondering what could that mean, "Sean, you want to eat rice?" I asked. As usual, no word and expression from him. I was guessing, probably he wants to eat rice. I was right though. He ate 2 bowls of rice. We were so happy, thought that our Sean is back. The next day I cooked special rice for him, but so frustrated, he refuse to eat. I have to try harder...jia you!!!!
