tomorrow is the big day

So, we have another evaluation, some play therapy with all the specialists, then they meet while I wait and I will get the diagnosis tomorrow.

Pray for us please. I'm scared. I know I can do whatever he needs, i'm just worried about his life being hard.

So, as of right now, we are looking at Sensory Processing Disorder, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, Attention Deficiet Disorder, and of course, Autism.

I'm hoping I go over and they say nothing is wrong ( I know, high hopes)

Please think of us, and pray that I can handle whatever i'm given with confidence.

ZandersMama replied: thanks ladies i have to go to school right after the appointment, and am in class till 8 tomorrow nite, but i'll update as soon as i get home.

you always make me feel better

Calimama replied: Good luck! I hope the appointment goes well.

my2monkeyboys replied: You are a strong woman, and a strong mother. You may be scared, but you can handle whatever happens, this I am sure of. You are all in my prayers.

Mommy2BAK replied: You will be in my thoughts and prayers.
When Avery was really sick and on life support I kept in mind that I could handle anything (with God's help) just as long as she is here the rest would be merely minor details. But I will hope right along with you that its nothing!

My thoughts and prayers are with you. I hope the appointment goes well. And, just remember that those labels are just that... just some word. He is still the same Zavier. This is an evaluation tool to enable you to gather resources that will help guide him. But I have no doubt that he will be fine regardless of the results because he has so much support from a great Mom!

Keeping you in my thougths and prayers. Please do update us when you can.

mom21kid2dogs replied: After the initial shock of hearing a "diagnosis", people generally come to terms with it quickly and move onto action. The sooner you know what you have, the sooner you can start working to maximize potential, lining up support services, linking up with other families, etc. I know you'll be great with whatever the final word is!

I agree. Also, the therapy is there to help after diagnosis to help them get through life without it being difficult. They teach them life skills to deal with their disorders. Megan has SPD w/OCD tendencies and my neice has OCD - they are still just as happy as ever.
