A diagnosis
My beautiful baby boy is Autistic. We are shocked, numb, sad, angry. It is such a whirlwind of emotions. We had the second assessment by the pediatrician yesterday and we have been referred on to a clinical psychologist and a diagnostic speech pathologist.

Next week Michael and I go back and we will get a therapy plan from the Dr.

I'm not looking forward to the numbness wearing off.

Sorry Ali- but also glad you can now 'work' on it, iykwim? My daugher has a physical disability and it is sooo hard to know your baby is a little different! Hugs to you :)
