Hi ladies,
last night i took The kids to the shop after school and as a treat i brought them a packet of snakes to share. As i opened the packet Hamish dived for cover in trolley and covered his ears. I asked him what was wrong he said the squeaking noise the packet makes before it opens gives him a headache.I had never noticed this noise before but it is there and he heard it over all the noise in the shop... As i have been noting things down it seems he has a lot of sensory issues, tactile, audio and taste to name a few..
He had a friend sleep over last week, it was hard work but gave me an insight to how his friendships seem to work and why he doesnt keep friends. I am hoping to get him into some social interaction therapy..
On another not i went out and brought "All cats have aspergers" by Kathy Hoopmann. I brought this book to help my 11 yr old daughter understand Hamish better. What a cute book it is too.
