Hi

Hi.  I'm a single Mum of a 5-year-old boy who looks increasingly like he's on the Autism spectrum probably with Aspergers and I've recently been to the doctor's to get a CAHMS referral as advised by the school which he just started in September.  Lovely to have to have the support from the school and I've suspected for some time, but still feels like a bit of a shock. I'm trying to take a day at a time!...

    Thanks ever so much for your reply, Birdie. Lovely to hear from you and pleased to hear I'm not the only one. Good idea to keep a diary. I'll start doing that more regularly. I'm in the West Midlands and will have a look at Pinpoint. Thanks for the suggestion.It is kind of a relief as I kept getting told I needed to discipline him but I knew it didn't work. The school have said that we'll take it a term at a time and perhaps get an EHCP done later on if I want him to go to a specialist school. I'm working full-time and am on my own so it's quite hard at the moment. Your reply has helped though and I'm sure once he gets a diagnosis I'll get some support. My son is also very funny!
