I’m new here

Inita

Hi everyone.

so my 3.5 year old son was diagnosed with autism. We are just waiting for a call from his Pediatrition. Can anyone tell me what’s going to happen now?  Has anyone got any advice for me or things that are good to know? As we have 0 support from anyone apart from our portage services support worker who is due to finish in a couple of weeks

  • Hi Inita, no advice I'm afraid as I am new to all this too, but wanted to say hi.  I know in 'normal' times we would be able to go on a course (Cygnets or the like) but they are not for a while usually. At the moment most things like that have ground to a halt. My daughter was diagnosed through a private assessment centre so I'm not sure of the way things progress via the NHS. She has however got an NHS paed appointment next week as she was on a waiting list since last summer to be assessed through the NHS.
