Lubrant Family Seeks Autism Service Dog for Alex
Meet Alexander Lubrant. Alex is six years old and is Autistic, and has a second diagnosis of Mood Disorder. Alexander struggles with all the transitions within the many programs, doctor appointments, and with his behavior out in public.
Sometimes we have easy days, but many times he's curious about what it might be like to vault a railing at the mall, or step in front of a moving car so he can knock on its hood. I have the gray hair to show for this.
We are seeking through this awesome opportunity, a trained Autism Service Dog from the nonprofit organization 4 Paws for Ability.
Please help give Alexander the opportunity for a better life, a safer life, a sense of security that would also help him to become better at socializing in the general public.
These kids look just fine, but are judged as odd or a discipline issue when really, they just see our world through different eyes and are deserving of patience and acceptance. An Autism Service dog would help Alexander tremendously with this. Your help no matter how great or small will go a long way. Please help make our wish come true, for Alexander to be given this blessing of an opportunity.
We are so grateful! God Bless...The Lubrant Family
Note from Judy: "Autism is a complex neurobiological disorder that interferes with normal development in language, intuitive thought and social interaction," says Southwest Autism Research & Resource Center. "The incidence of autism spectrum disorders (ASDs) has literally exploded in the past decade with the latest studies revealing that approximately 1 in 150 children are affected by an ASD (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention). In the early 1990s, the incidence level was 1 in 10,000."
Thanks for considering a donation to help change the life of Alex Lubrant and his family.
