Are these emotions normal

Hi All who come across this,

life for my daughter hasn't changed as such due to the fact I had already adapted to who she is from gaining valuable insight into her just through observing the things she does however for me I seem to be going through a roller coaster of emotions since my princess was diagnosed asd only a week ago, I always believed my daughters hearing problems to be the reasons behind her special traits.

i feel like I've been told this and that's it your on your own, go get on with it, which is funny as I have brought my daughter up for years now, so is this a normal reaction as a parent to go through so many emotions, denial, loss, feelings of failure and plenty more.

i am so proud of my daughter she is a real inspiration to me and various other family members.

Any feedback would be great

have a great day everybody :-)

  • I felt relieved that I was being heard finally, Bounce had been regressing for 2 1/2 years when we got the dx. He is the only one out of 5  with a dx. We all think about the what if's some time or other. But I know there is nothink I can do but just get on with life, find a way of managing by boys difficulties etc and get on with it. Times it can be very hard and challenging but nothink ever is handed on a plate, these days we have to fight for what our kids need to help them have a joyful life.

     

    Don't wait for school to request a statement, contact your local parent partnership and they will help you request one yourself. I struggled for 3 years to get school on my side and to get the right contact details for SENARS to help Bumblebee now I have done it all myself and just waiting for final statement for him and draft for Bounce.
