Recent diagnosis

My almost 4 year old son has recently been diagnosed with core autism, im currently struggling to understand what this will mean for him, We have been referred to earlydays and occupational therapy, but im still not really sure where we go now that we have had the disgnosis, the doctor we have seen was really helpful, but im feeling rather confused as to what will happen now. He is currrently in mainstream nursery however im unsure if he will be able to continue there after july as he will be expected to go full time there and im not convinced he will be able to cope with full time school at the moment, any advice would be greatly appreciated! :-)

  • Our son is now 18 and has only just been confirmed to have a form of autism, we knew from the age of 2 that something wasnt quite right and seeked help throughout his nursery and school life for extra support for him as he also had learning difficulties and his social skills were poor.   Its taken along time but it does mean that we can now get the help he deserves at last.
