People were crying when I was singing this song, and you cannot imagine what it means to me knowing that my performance touched someone’s soul…

There is A LOT of crying at TACA. 💔

Not just tears of relief from finally feeling SEEN.
But tears of REALIZATION. GRIEF. ANGER, and the heartbreaking realization of just how much our children have been medically failed.

Imagine spending YEARS hearing “it’s just autism,” “it’s behavioral,” or “there’s nothing more we can do”…
Only to attend a conference where physicians and researchers are discussing neuroinflammation, immune dysfunction, gastrointestinal disorders, metabolic abnormalities, cerebral folate deficiency, PANS/PANDAS, and other medical conditions that can coexist with autism, and are untreated behind an autism label.

Conditions families have spent YEARS begging someone to investigate, and that’s when the tears come.

You start replaying every appointment. Every dismissal. Every time your child suffered while you were made to question your own instincts.

There is a particular kind of grief in realizing your child may not have received the medical attention they deserved.

And an even harder realization?
The medical system is often not equipped to care for the very children who need complex medical care the MOST.

THIS is the MEDICAL ABANDONMENT so many families are talking about.

Not every autistic child has these conditions. But an autism diagnosis should NEVER become an excuse to stop investigating pain, illness, regression, or unexplained symptoms.

This was my THIRD @tacanow conference, and watching first-time moms process everything brought me right back to my first.

The heartbreak of what you didn’t know. The anger over what was dismissed. The grief over time you cannot get back.

And then, the HOPE that comes with knowledge. ❤️
I asked these mothers how they felt after their first TACA conference. Their answers speak volumes.
We should NOT have to become medical detectives just to convince professionals that our children’s suffering deserves investigation.

Our children deserved better than medical dismissal. And the next generation deserves better than inheriting it.

Custom order — "Mountain Pendant"
Sterling Silver (925)

A raw, textured and oxidized silhouette of a mountain range, merging with a polished background.

Even though the background is highly polished, I intentionally gave it a subtle texture to create a more natural connection with the roughness of the mountains. The contrast is still there, but to me, these small details can make all the difference between something that feels alive, as if it carries a soul, and something that feels dull and flat.

As the light catches the surface from different angles, the "sky" will never quite behave like a mirror. You might notice thin clouds in shifting formations, a certain time of day, or perhaps the quiet presence of moonlight.

As always, it's a pure joy to do my very best to materialize a client's vision, even if it sometimes takes a few more hours than intended before I can finally say, "Now it's done."

So, to this client, and to all of you who have given me the opportunity to craft something for you - thank you for placing your trust in my work.
