My eldest went through 3 yrs of speech therapy, due to tongue tie that wasnt picked up.

My little Kane, 3, was born with cleft lip, gum and full palate.
So along with the ops, we have delayed/bad speech. And no decent speechie within 6 hrs of here.... so all the work we are doing on our own, with help from Westmeads on occasion.

We have him on the books for a program in Sydney which will give him intense therapy for a week at a time, just waiting to hear when our first app will be.

He is just gorgeous, so happy, but gets so frustrated when I cant understand him, and it breaks my heart...... he starts preschool in a few weeks and I am SO SO nervous for him.. they know about him and have met him a few times, and i love his teacher, but I still worry they wont understand him and he'll cry.....

Awesome thread Maz...xoxoxo
