I'm really having a rough time lately ladies--and I could use a hug. To compound the issues, I get a call from my son's speech path. teacher today (he's in a developmental preschool at the elementary school for a severe speech delay). And she says that he seems to have the characteristics of apraxia. I had long thought it--but thought maybe I was wrong. To hear it made me want to cry right there.
I know that anything can happen--that he can catch up perhaps--but I also know that maybe he won't. And then I found the apraxia site and saw this really cute download of "what I would say" and it's SO true. I just KNOW that is exactly what my son would want to say....if he could talk. And I know it's how I feel when people ask him to. I can't stop crying. Seriously.
It's like over the course of the last 10 months my entire world has come crashing down piece by piece....and now this. I am blessed in so many ways--but then I just sit here and say please.....please don't give me any more to handle right now.
Anyways--I could just use a hug.
Re: I need a hug
Big hug!!! HUGE hug!!!
No hug from me, but more of a push. You now have possbily a new diagnosis, possibly new ways to work with your son, at least more things to research!!!
I know you from the tri boards (our sons are days apart) and I know you are a smart, capable and an overall awesome gal. You are working hard on helping your DS talk, and you will definitely help him overcome many challenges.
I believe in you!
