About us

Hi I'm new to the forum, I have a 2 year old son who is currently on the waiting list for autism diagnosis. He's far behind in his development and isn't talking or interacting at all. Our health visitor came out to see us a few weeks ago and she informed us she thinks its possible for him to be autistic as he is showing a lot of autistic traits. 

Myself and my husband don't know very much about autism and are feeling a little lost at the moment.

We don't know where to begin with learning about autism or helping our son. We feel very helpless at the moment and unsure of what we can do to help him. 

is there anyone here who has been in a similar situation if so could you please get in contact with us we could really do with some advice.

thanks everyone :)

  • Thank you very much for your reply Margaret, what a nice reply.  I wouldnt change him for the world he is such a fantastic little boy. 

    Its just so hard all I want to do is to help him to develop and to be happy but I just don't know how to at the moment. It's just all a bit of a shock to be honest. 

    Thank you for welcoming me to the forum I've never used anything like this before
