Well, as suspected the new evaluation has changed difficult child's diagnosis. difficult child still is diagnosis with mood disorder-not otherwise specified, and ADHD, but they have taken out the ODD and replaced it with Apergers.
I now have to get a whole new IEP put in place. Luckily I have an ace in the hole on my side. difficult child's physc. clinic has a case manager that will go with me. The school has also learned NOT to mess with me. :wink:
The BIP will probably stand as is, or just be tweeked.
Now I get to read many books on Aspergers and I even found one for adolescents that helps them understand and cope with Aspergers.
difficult child is also enjoying being on the swim team at her school. I was very proud of her when she overcame her fear of diving and finally went off the starting platform.(We had good help from the coaches encouraging her on diving.)
Thats about all the news for now.
