We've got our diagnosis

I picked up the diagnosis report from Dr. Turner today and we now have our official diagnosis.

Aspergers
ADHD
some oppositional symptoms

I looked up the definition of Aspergers as I wasn't sure what the main differences in autism and aspergers was and found this line:

Unlike those with autism, people with AS are not usually withdrawn around others; they approach others, even if awkwardly. For example, a person with AS may engage in a one-sided, long-winded speech about a favorite topic, while misunderstanding or not recognizing the listener's feelings or reactions, such as a need for privacy or haste to leave.[5] This social awkwardness has been called "active but odd".[1] This failure to react appropriately to social interaction may appear as disregard for other people's feelings, and may come across as insensitive.[5] However, not all individuals with AS will approach others. Some of them may even display selective mutism, speaking not at all to most people and excessively to specific people. Some may choose to talk only to people they like.[21]


Now we'll start the journey of OT, ST and PT full time again.

Kackleberry Fun

We took a trip to Kackleberry Farm in Louisville, GA yesterday. We all had a really great time! It would have been more fun if it wasn't 85 degrees! Not October weather!!!

I have so many pictures that I wanted to share so I made a slideshow out of them.
