Oh Sarah!!! How frustrating. M's teacher has just read "The Out of Sync Child" to help herself become more aware of things... God I love her. The hospital has had heaps of issues in dealing with her.... we are in a room of 4 beds and there has been lots of noise and stuff happening, lights on late at night etc etc...

I nearly wrung one of their necks yesterday when I said we needed the OT to come as I was watching Matilda flapping and carrying on in frustration at being connected to the drip. The nurse had no idea about sensory integration and made me write it down than the play therapist came and went to the OT's office (who was away sick the past 2 days) and grabbed us a brush. Its helped.... She's still on the edge, but its helped keep us on the edge rather than messy.
