He Came Home From School and Exploded!

Nicky had a great day at school but went into full autism meltdown mode at home. We spent most of the afternoon just trying to get to be calm. We started by letting him just chill in his room with lights down low. He also spent some time riding our new stationary bike. After a warm bath, he started to feel like himself again.
Why You Should Support NickyTV - Venmo - @Shannon-Savoca
NickyTV is the engine that is going to drive our future endeavors for Nicholas and the special needs community in general. We are going to blink our eyes and Nick is going to be 21 years old, and his support team will pretty much cease to exist anywhere near the levels of today. It's up to Shannon and me to keep that from happening. Additionally, when he ages out of the public school system, I will retire from teaching and seek to create employment and entrepreneurial opportunities for Nicholas and others with special needs. If you are interested, take a look at the Rising Tides Car Wash and John's Crazy Socks. We are going to start several companies that resemble, and improve upon, these two amazing organizations. At this point, we have plans for a sleepwear company, an event DJ company, and a pizza store. These kinds of initiatives will take a tremendous amount of planning, commitment, and the biggest factor of all, money. If you have the means to do so, please consider making a donation.

    I think this is my favourite NickyTV video so far, I was smiling all the way through. I love that everybody has their own special bond with Nicky, and how all of those different dynamics fit so well together. Johnny’s concern for his brother was obvious, and I nearly died of cuteness when Nicky gave Johnny a bite of his pizza! And you are so blessed to have Sam on top of all of that, he is so well suited to his job. It’s a warm and fuzzy video and let’s face it, the world can do with some more warm and fuzzy at the moment. Love to you all from the UK 😊

Maybe with so many changes going on in the house, and going from a full house with a high level of excitement to back to normal, that may also have played into Nicky's meltdown. At least he knows his home is his safe haven, and there will be no judgement given when things get hard for him. Much love to you all, take care, until tomorrow, keep calm and paint a seashell.

It melted my heart when he gave Johnny a bite of his pizza.. I love the gym. It has got to be incredibly hard When they can't communicate what's bothering them, And you know something was bothering him. I believe soon he will be able to communicate that, He is talking so much better everyday That's because of all the work you guys put in with him.

    Our daughter had a breakdown once she got in the car after school a lot. The doctor told us that it was probably because she had to hold everything together all day and be around so many people. Once she got to a safe place then all the emotion let out. She is very high functioning so I didn’t catch on with her rough times. Of course in 90’s and early 2000’s, less was understood about autism but our doctor did explain the spectrum to us. Nick holding the pizza up for Johnny was heart-warming 🥰

In fact, in yesterday’s vlog, they decided to drive around again after she did not want to get out of the car in the driveway. She’s done this before. I think she likes her house too but I also think, like all of us, we just don’t want to go home sometimes and want to go do something else instead. I can remember that when I was teenager too.
