[QUOTE="Ktllc, post: 496463, member: 11847"] Susie, we went through the whole school evaluation process. Their testing doesn't show a big enough delay. But according to verbal psychiatric. evaluation, V has over 2 years delay in communication among other issues. That's why I'm waiting for the report and schedule the new school evaluation in May. I want enough time to gather all the necessary info (including advocate) and be ready for meeting after achool evaluation. My daughter's therapist explained that often, the school will only do screening but not actual testing. Which can explain why their results only show a small delay but not as big as private psychiatric evaluation. It is simply not detailed enough and his strength help average the scores of his weak areas. The devil is in the details! As far as Occupational Therapist (OT), we are waiting for the approval since I'm transfering him to a new therapist. With the first one, I did not see any results and she did not seem to really understand V or listen to me. He will now have in home therapy and I hope it will be better. I met with her and she seemed to be good. I've just talked to husband about eventually moving somewhere else with more school resources. We are both ready to do it, but we need more info on what V will actually need. On top of the anxiety and sensory processing disorder (SPD), we might also be looking at Learning Disability (LD), but he is too young to confirm it yet (which I'm glad doctor is not jumping to conclusion and stays cautious). Will the communication delay sustain once the other diagnosis are tackled? That is another unknown. Will his hearing loss be healed or are we looking at long term?? Yet, another unknown. I feel like I'm drawning with all of V's issues and no real plan to follow. Just my confused Mommy's gut. [/QUOTE]
