[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 304463, member: 1991"] "And yet, she can describe perfectly directions from the classroom to the library!" Thething is, in her mind she can visualise the walk from the classroom to the library, so it's a matter of simply verbalising the sequence. it's the other way, if you get me. As for Fragile X - by all means check it out, we thought it was us too (because autism doesn't just run in our family, it gallops). But the tests were negative. The test requires a blood draw, so I would suggest you hold off on it until a blood draw is needed for other purposes. Unless the test has improved and they only need a cheek swap now. A diagnosis of Fragile X won't really change her problems, it just helps explain why a bit more. You still have to find ways to help her adapt. Same goes for the others. Maybe get DS19 tested first (he may need a blood draw anyway for other reasons). He IS related to cherub, isn't he? Trish, see if you can organise appointments at the major state hospital Kids. You should be able to also check in to Ronald McDonald House for a day or so, while they test everything. Marg [/QUOTE]
