Hello

Hi,

   i'm Crissi and my 7 year old son is currently being assessed for Aspergers Syndrome.

It has been a long 3 year battle trying to get somebody to sit up and pay attention to his problems but finally it feels like we are getting somewhere but it is bringing a lot of stuff up for him and right now things are so difficult. He's angry, i'm exhausted and although i know we only have a short distance to go it's hard to keep going sometimes.......but i will keep going. I will fight until my son has everything he needs and i will do it for him and his future because he's my baby and that's what a mum does isnt it? We keep going!

I'm already so proud of him, he and his brother are my life and i wouldnt swap him for all the neurotypical children under the stars. It's nice to find a place where people understand the struggle and how difficult it can be having to remain strong regardless.

Anyway, thanks for reading

Crissi :)

  • Hi everyone, my son received his diagnosis of autism last week feeling a little lost with it all and wondering what i should be doing now????

    I think the worst part was the waiting and the process which took two years. 

    Any advice in general??
