[QUOTE="TeDo, post: 557348"] I've applied for difficult child 1 and was denied. They didn't want any of the records I had, they wanted to request their own copies. Well, they picked only the medical records and based their decision solely on those as they applied to his ADHD ONLY. Their comment was that as long as he took his ADHD medications, there was no significant impairment. Ummmmm, what about all the rest of his diagnosis's?!? I appealed and sent them (whether they wanted them or not) copies of school records (from the 2 schools he was all but forced out of) AND social services reports and notes AND all paperwork from the therapeutic respite facility he was in for a week. I also found some online functional skill assessments that I printed out and filled out with detailed explanations on how difficult child 1 does or doesn't do on each and every one of the questions. I'm still waiting to hear back from them and that was 2 months ago. At least I have hope they are at least considering it. [/QUOTE]
