Within ten months, we had more positive results than all of 2 years of conventional therapy. This was enough validation for us that we had made the right decision as a family for Fabu by dedicating our full attention and time to her. At this point, Fabu was in 2nd grade and showing improvement not only in academics but also socially. She was not yet reading at grade level...

Gaming on Multiple Platforms
FabuRocks Podcast
Fabu had not been exposed to gaming on multiple platforms such as Xbox and VR. VR gaming had just come out, and Fabu wanted to play VR games often. These were not only fun for her but all of us as a family.

Unboxing Therapy
FabuRocks Podcast
Fabu enjoyed playing Minecraft, Roblox, and other games at that time. We began noticing she was losing attention quicker than we expected. We were hoping she would continue as engaged and motivated to play as she was with Pokémon Go previously. So, we decided at this point to switch up the content again. We put gaming on pause and returned to something she was familiar with and had done beforeL...

Pokémon Go Fever Hit
FabuRocks Podcast
Pokémon Go came out, and we were hooked immediately!!
info_outlineAfter 6 gummy videos, we found that making YouTube videos was no joke! They were taking a really long time from start to finish; between setting things up, filming, editing, rendering, and uploading so Fabu could see herself later, each video was taking way more time and energy than we ever imagined.
However, the results were great. Fabu was even more engaged with each new video we made.
We knew we were getting closer to making some tough family decisions quickly! The amount of time and effort was taking a toll on us in our daily life. We were scared to fail because we were not putting in the amount of time needed to succeed. We needed more time, more time to overall get the results we wanted.
FabuMom – At that time, I worked in the social services field and started preparing to open a targeted case management company here in Miami. This was taking up a lot of my time and resources to achieve this goal.
FabuDad – At that time, he had a private lending company that provided business loans to Hispanic companies in Miami.
As a family, we were doing well, going on vacations for at least 4 x years. We had many plans and goals which had nothing to do with making YouTube videos.
We knew, though, that we needed to make some drastic decisions if we were going to have a shot at having great success with Fabu’s therapy.
So, we did what every family does. We had a family meeting over dinner and discussed the best decision for Fabu, knowing that each of us needed to compromise.
Filming, editing, rendering, and uploading was what was taking the most time. Not to mention all the time it took preparing to film. There were not enough hours in a day for FabuDad to successfully run a private lending business and do all of what we were doing at home with Fabu. We just needed more time. It was decided for FabuMom to stop pursuing the Case Management agency's opening as we knew that focusing on opening and building a second business would take all the time away from helping Fabu. She instead found a job that allowed her to work from home, giving her more flexibility and time to dedicate to Fabu. FabuDad would, for liability reasons, close down the business and dedicate his time to helping Fabu.
We knew these hard decisions needed to be made to help Fabu successfully, but we also knew that our lifestyle would change completely moving forward from that moment. No more vacations and bootstrapping mode were enabled.
We were certain that the best investment we were making was investing in our daughter and her future.
