A diagnosis finally!

Mush

I just had to post to say we got an autistic diagnosis today after a very long time and many meetings with various people! My ten year old is struggling to come to terms with it but at least we can start to get help, support and information.  Not sure how I feel about it and despite knowing that this was the likely outcome somehow it's still a shock.  No questions just wanted to tell somebody or everybody!!

  • Thanks crystal, been a long time coming.  I have been blessed with his new school and they have already been supporting him as if he was ASD.  At the moment we are researching and answering a million and one questions from him.  He is mainly relieved that there is a genuine reason that he is different and now loves to call me a neuro-typical.  Not sure about the statement tho.
