[QUOTE="Ktllc, post: 558795, member: 11847"] First at school using the amplifier. V still claims it helps him so much. He took a few breaks from it but used it most of the day. When I picked him, he had just taken it off because his ear was sore. He probably needs to get used to it yet. But it does not discourage him and after a short break, he's ready for it again. His teacher is going to talk with the Special Education teacher and see if the school has any actual FM system for V to try. The guidance counselor, this morning, said that the school is not obligated to provided it (even if it's doctor recommended) but it does not mean that the school won't. She said they used to be obligated but following some abuse (too many doctor's notes for all kind of things), the policy had changed and it's up to the school to decide wether it will provide it or not. I'm not sure wether the guidance counselor is right on the matter, but I did not say anything. Whatever she thinks at this point is not relevant. We'll see if the school will provide the FM system or not and go from there. A trial at the very least would be great. The university program will emphasized the importance of treating the Auditory Processing Disorders (APD). So I'm trying to follow there advice besides all the obstacles. The guidance counselor still has to reply to the new private Speech Language Pathologist (SLP) who will be treating V during school time. She said it would be just fine, just some paperwork to go through. I really hope the Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) diagnosis report will be in the mail soon.... without it, the guidance counselor can't get started on the 504 plan (maybe she is waiting on it before getting back to Speech Language Pathologist (SLP) as well). Sometimes, it feels like a second job to manage all of V's care! Than add Sweet Pea who is not making progress, or very little. Who needs a break?! [/QUOTE]
