Final Diagnosis!

NAS70134
over 3 years ago

HI All,

My 12 year old daughter after 2.5 years of waiting finally had her diagnosis through of being on the ASD. We are relieved in a way but kind of sad, but also happy if you know what I mean.

I am look forward to gaining as much assistance as I can for my daughter without making too many changes, but also being able to give her the best and happy everyday life that she deserves.

Any help, tips, advice, grants, assistance would be gratefully received. 

Many thanks take care, stay safe

Liz

    Nice one.

    Don't know how far on the spectrum she is but what I will say is do not let it become an excuse for her actions but an understanding. Every one still needs boundaries but it's how you apply them that make the difference. I was severely thrashed as a lad because in them days they did not recognise ASD. Am 60+ and just officially diagnosed.

    Some one on here will be more proactive with advice and pointing in the right direction.

    Wish you et al the best.

    BTW the reason I wrote what I did is that I have met a child that did something  and his explanation was - 'my mum said I can not help it because I've got ASD.
