[QUOTE="Ktllc, post: 457412, member: 11847"] I've talked to the office that will do the testing. It happens in 3 steps: 1. Initial visit with V., myself and husband 2. The actual testing which can be between 2 and 4 hours depending in the kid. 3. A visit to read the results. I've also asked if the results were pretty reliable or if, maybe, more testing would be required. She said that unless there are some extreme difficulties with V (refuse to cooperate, deafness or other...), the results should be definite. It will tell us if he is autistic and, if so, where on the spectrum. Knowing my little V, I know he will be glad to "play" with the doctor. I've also faxed the school report as well as the file from his therapist. We should be able to get an appointment by the end of this month or early October. Now husband and myself are yet again debating where to put him for preschool. The faith based center where he has spent the summer (super caring, but lots of staff rotation, several classes in one big shared room = lots of noise, transitions, distraction for V, and no help if he is found Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD)) OR Head start (did NOT listen to my concerns last year, but V says he would rather go there, same class and teacher everyday, disability coordinator and school intervention if necessary). We are going to the open house today, meet with the teacher V would have should he go to Head Start this year. It is such a dilemma!!! [/QUOTE]
