Knowledge is power- for patients and care providers!

PANS patients suffer from debilitating symptoms—ranging from sudden-onset OCD and eating restrictions to chronic fatigue and brain fog. While these are often treated as separate psychiatric or neurological issues, evidence shows inflammation plays a role. 🧠

Join Brain Inflammation Collaborative for a webinar on April 22 to explore a community-driven initiative to turn individual medication journeys into the large-scale evidence needed to transform care, secure insurance, and refine precision treatments in PANS featuring Drs. Jenny Frankovich and Denise Calaprice. and Breanne Failor will share her caregiver expertise, as the parent of a child who has experienced PANS.

Shout out to districts aligning school start times with science. Research (including in JAMA) continues to show that adolescent sleep deprivation isn’t something teens can simply “catch up” on—deficits compound over time and impact mental health, learning, and functioning. Sleep hygiene support for teens is one small but meaningful place I can help.

💬 Editor's Note by JAMA Editorial Fellow Randi Bates, PhD, APRN-CNP and JAMA Deputy Editor Tracy Lieu, MD, MPH: face increasing rates of insufficient sleep, driven by early school start times and digital media use, undermining cognitive and mental health.

For generations, adult–child relationships were built on power ✨over✨.

Even as we’ve given kids more voice and rights, the old self-control mindset still linger, telling us we need to stay in charge at all costs.

This graphic by educator Kristin Wiens offers a wiser reframe: ✨ Power doesn’t have to be a threat.✨ It can be something we give, through understanding, safety, and stress awareness!

Autism awareness should include awareness of conditions that can mimic or overlap with autism. PANDAS is one example. It can present with anxiety, OCD-like behaviors, regression, and emotional dysregulation—symptoms that can look very similar on the surface. The difference is often in the timeline: PANDAS typically has a rapid, sudden onset, often after infection, while autism is present early and develops over time. Understanding matters, because the supports—and sometimes medical treatments—can look very different.

Knowledge is power. Understanding the “why” changes the “what next.”

Neuroimmune Foundation executive director and founder, Anna Conkey, had the honor and privilege of interviewing Dr. Susan Swedo, Chief Pediatrics & Developmental Neuroscience Branch at the NIMH in March 2018.

On World Autism Awareness Day, I’m reminded how powerful understanding can be.

When we look beyond surface behaviors and get curious about what a child is experiencing, we open the door to real connection, meaningful support, and growth that actually fits the child.

Tonight the Sunday scaries are less about the week ahead, and more about the moment I keep replaying in my mind.

This weekend, we were on an adventure walk at the lake. My husband asked my son if he wanted to throw a rock, and handed him a big one. My son handed ME the rock and said, “Here you go, Mommy.” I thought it was for me to throw, so I launched it into the water.

So when I looked at him expecting to see the joy from the big splash it made and instead saw the most heartbreaking expression… I realized I messed up. SO big.

It wasn’t a rock to throw. It was a gift. A treasure he’d picked just for me. We both love cool rocks and he’s such a giver… I literally threw his gift.

I carried him along the beach while he sobbed—wind picking up, sun dipping lower. I could feel the urge rise in me: to distract, to fix, to say “it’s okay” or “we’ll find another.” To move on.

But instead, I kept coming back to the only thing that mattered: loving him through it. I apologized again and again—for misunderstanding, for throwing away something that mattered. I told him I was so sorry. I didn’t rush his sadness.

Eventually, he was ready for a re-do and he picked a new rock. He gave me a do-over. He let me try again to get it right.

It’s not about being perfect; it’s about being present. He won’t remember everything… but I hope he remembers I own mistakes and that I love him including ALL of his feelings.

If you’re parenting in the mess and the mending, you’re in good company. This is the heart work.

Still seems the most fitting forecast.

Gratitude doesn’t have to feel like a chore or a lecture—it’s about finding small, meaningful ways to appreciate what’s going right, even on tough days. Research shows that practicing gratitude can improve mental health, strengthen relationships, and help us manage stress. But let’s keep it real: it needs to feel natural, not forced.Gratitude also doesn’t need to feel “serious” to work. Humor and honesty are a nice way to help everyone feel comfortable. After all, gratitude is basically just noticing what doesn’t suck. :-)So if you are thinking of going around the table today and asking everyone to say something they're grateful for, but you know you're going to get a lot of "ughhhh" and eye rolls... watch this first!
