[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 685338, member: 1550"] We just brought the neuropsychologist repoer for diagnosis. Sonic never went to therapists. His school also helped. Its been four years. Time to visit Fetal Alcohol Syndrome (FAS) clinic again. Bet anything THAT is why she cant function. Thats brain damage. It doesn't go away. The other diagnoses are becsuse of tha Fetal Alcohol Syndrome (FAS). This type of situation really riles me up. Going North, disabled adult children dont get SSDI. They get SSI and Medicare and usually Medicaid and other helpful services as well. It is not like an adult who suddenly becomes disabled and has a work history to determine how much they get. Apples and oranges. The adults who bowl and play softball with sonic all have ssi. Its given as a continum from high school and is not hard to get. Your child just needed to be known to have had issues, usually from birth, such as prenatal drug or alcohol exposure or a cognitive deficit or autism. I do know of one girl who was born "typical" but had a traumatic head injury that rendered her cognitively disabled and she also got ssi. [/QUOTE]
