In my last post I said that I would write the 2nd part of our 1st month journey, but well it just did not happen. I am learning more and more each day that I never know what to expected when you have children, but even more when you have a child with special needs.
Like I said in my last post, it did not take as long it was suppose to, to get into testing. If I have learned anything about being an advocate for my child it is that being super nice gets you a lot farther than being rude and pushy. I called the office where Katie-Beth was scheduled to be tested and asked to be put on the cancellation list and I periodically called to make sure she was still on the list. One day we were having a rough day so I called and expressed that we were having a difficult time and asked if we could get her in quicker. I was informed that someone had just cancelled and they could get us in the next day!!!!
Since testing we have began a regiment of therapies to help our little girl, but let me tell you, it isn't easy. Autism is not like a cold, you can't just take meds and it will go away. Autism isn't something that is going to go away, God blessed us with a daughter with Autism! We are going to therapy to help her learn to adapt.
