LR. I know how scary it is to be in that place. I hope you get some answers. I am not sure whether they do assessments at that age, but a talk to a GP you trust might be a great place to start.
Christy, I hope you are going ok this week
As for us, we had the next round of assessments today - physio and OT. It went really well, and definitely better than I was expecting. He did really well with both, and the OT confirmed what the paed told us last time, that he probably doesn't fit into the Aspergers label. We get the final results in a month or so, but I think we can say that he won't be given a label at this stage. Which is a mixed result I guess, but I do think it's the right one at this time. They are going to give us some strategies to help with his quirks so it has been worthwhile going through the process. And I do feel some relief now that we've done it. So that's where we are for now.
And once again he gave us a good laugh. When the OT asked him to make a rocket like hers with blocks, he did it then said "that's not a very good rocket, I could have made a better one!". Gotta love him!
ETA: Christy, the OT was Annabelle and she was fantastic!
