Your Child Is In There | Christian Moms Finding Answers for Nonverbal Autism

Was your child developing normally and then suddenly regressed, especially around age one to three?

Did the behavioral change happen right after an illness, a fever, a tick bite, or a course of antibiotics?

Does your child struggle with intense OCD behaviors, tics, or rage that seems to come and go in waves?

If your child was developing normally and then suddenly regressed, or if intense behaviors like OCD, tics, or unexplainable rage come and go in waves, this episode is for you. I share how Melody's strep antibodies came back at over 2,000 when the top of normal is under 200, and she was not even sick with strep at the time. No doctor had ever tested for it. When I finally found a provider to run one simple blood test, it cracked the whole case wide open. We break down what PANS and PANDAS are in plain English, no medical degree required, how confused antibodies can mistake a child's brain for an infection and cause sudden regression, and why what is being called autism could actually be a treatable autoimmune problem. Grab a pen. I map out seven red flags to reopen your child's case file, the exact labs to request, and the specific words to say at your next appointment so you are never dismissed again.

Do you lie awake at 2 AM running through everything that could go wrong for your child?

Do you feel guilty for being anxious, like your fear means your faith is weak?

Has your body forgotten how to rest because you have been on guard for years?

If you are lying awake running through every worst-case scenario for your child while battling deep caregiver burnout, this episode is for you. You know God can restore, but you may feel too physically exhausted to hold onto hope. I share the raw truth about late-night panic and the spiritual shame that tags along, and I bust the lie that your anxiety means your faith is weak. Your anxiety is not a sin. It is proof your nervous system has been stuck in survival mode after years of running on empty. I share the exact scriptures I pray in the middle of the night, how I pair them with four-count breath prayers to calm a racing heart, and the raw story of sitting at Melody's kindergarten graduation, watching the other children sing while my daughter stood on the sidelines. Your exhaustion is not a faith failure, Mama. We are finding the way out of the red together.

In this premiere episode, I share how a medical crisis at age 13 taught me to hunt for the root cause instead of covering up symptoms, and how that lesson came back to change everything when my daughter Melody suddenly lost her words. If your child won't speak, and you have prayed the same bold prayer so many times that you eventually stopped out of grief and the quiet guilt that you were bothering God, this one is for you. You are not bothering Him, and the prayer you gave up on is not dead. Through the story of Mephibosheth, you will see why your child's seat at the King's table is secure before the healing ever comes, and how God answered a specific prayer I had completely forgotten, years after I stopped asking. Your fight is not over, Mama. We are finding the way forward together.
