Hi.
My 8 year old son was diagnosed with High Functioning Autism shortly before Easter, and I've spent the last couple of weeks coming to terms with the diagnosis. I've know something was wrong since he was 18 months old, but has previously hovered around the borderline point for diagnosis. Can't tell you what a relief it has been to finally get a diagnosis, and realise that I haven't been an over anxious, paranoid mummy! I can finally connect with others in the same position without feeling a fraud.
