I just wanted to thank all of you wonderful ladies who responded to my desperate post last week. You all had wonderful advice and suggestions…not to mention tons of support and understanding. In case you have forgotten…I was the one with the HFA son who might be losing his services. He is 4.5 yrs and in Pre-K (won’t turn 5 until Oct). The school has decided he is too high functioning for the SpecEd preschool and want to close his IEP. If he were in Kindy we would be talking mainstreaming but because there is no regular ed preschool here he will get nothing. Needless to say we are devastated and fighting with every ounce of our being....

Quick update: We showed up at the IEP meeting only to find out it had been rescheduled. It seems everyone was notified but us.....grrrrr! However, hindsight being 20/20 it was a blessing. We now have time to get an advocate to go in with us and we are also having outside evaluations done. Hopefully all of this will result in continued services. Please keep us in your prayers...we need it.

Thanks again!
