It's official

David's diagnosis is officially finalized now.  He barely missed the severe diagnosis by 1 and 1/2 points if I remember correctly.  The specialist said that his ability to understand us and how I've used that

A quote that hits home...

"You know best. You might not be an expert on autism but you’re an expert on your child. If something doesn’t feel right, it probably isn’t." --unknown

This hits home even harder now after my last meeting with David's new specialist yeterday.

When I asked her about what she was thinking on the issues David struggles with and what they mean she answered, "Your gut instincts were right. Everything you were concerned, worried, and wondering about are true... Trust your gut. It has been very honest with you."

Update From Doctor

David has hope. :)  He has been stuck in the world of a 2 year old (in some areas even younger than that) even though he is now 4, but she believes she can help us get the help we need to make that reality change for him. :)  I needed to hear that.  Especially after how hard things have been lately with him starting to regress again.
