Hello Everyone

I hope you are all well :O), I just wanted to pop in really and let you know that Nialls assessment went as well as it could do, and that he has a diagnosis of Autism. We were expecting it so we are ok about everything, Its all about making things as easy as possible for him now, so we are working on stragies for him and educating ourselves at the same time, its a long lifetime road ahead for us but with each other we will all be just perfect :O)
Sooooo as yet this week, no cards from me, I do hope to find some me time somewhere soon, I do still owe some Birthday Thanks please bear with me.xxx

Hi Joey, You know where I am if you need me. You'll find it a great relief you have had the diagnosis and learn to adapt. Things are so much easier now we understand Daniels Autism. Take advantage that you can probably claim disability allowance for him, no one told us and he now gets the benefit. If I can help or advise in any way, let me know
