Our son is on the waiting list for Autistic Diagnosis Service but I’m really struggling managing all the meetings, appointments, calls whilst working full time. Both me and his dad work full time Monday - Friday so we utilise after school clubs and breakfast clubs where possible.
Now things are moving forwards we are really struggling to keep up with all the appointments and calls required, we don’t have enough annual leave to cover all the school holidays plus every appointment aswell.
I guess I am just wondering if other parents have managed to keep full time jobs whilst going through this or if you’ve had to leave to manage it all.
I love my career and my partner is the higher earner so it would be me stepping down but financially it would make things extremely difficult but I know if we don’t attend everything we risk losing everything we are working towards for our son
