Hi gang...Haven't been around alot...busy but lurking here on occassion. Just wanted to wish all you gals and families a Happy Easter.
All is good here..Adam had his transition meeting for Kindie..gonna get a 2nd eval cuz he was "off" that day due to med change and being ill with an ear infection---only in my house I swear LOL
They are going for the autistic support room (I'm good with that) and they are adding a new sensory room for the start of the school year HOORAY. He'll get his speech and OT as requested. I blew them away at the meeting with all his current assesments I have done outside the school district. I was calm, cool and collected LOL during the whole meeting. I also requested he ride the spec ed bus. I don't feel comfortable with the big bus.
We are also in agreement to add inclusional stuff along the way which they due over time.
My baby is getting SO big---
Oh and we are going to Disney in May for Mother's Day, my dad gave that as a gift for Adam coming a long way. He is SUPER EXCITED....we've been prepping by reading stories about the airport/airplanes. My behavioral consult is putting together a pic book too.
We also tried switching his meds. He's on Adderall XR 10mg and seems to be leveling off so I went to Focalin...well he was a emotional ZOMBIE on that. I went back to the Adderall. He didn't echo and stim AT ALL on the Focalin but my God the meltdowns and transitioning was awful. The Adderall he echos and stims but is happy and complies better......sigh, back to the drawing board. I will say this, we had him off meds completely for a week and he was a MESS by the 5th day.....had to show my DH that meds are a must. Why must men learn the hard way LOL
Talk to ya'll soon
