Ok done :)

Ok so if you read below, you will see our journey from 01/10/10-19/10/10 in regards to Nathan and having him tested for Autism.

As it does say a fair way down the page we are currently in limbo til 14 Feb 2011 until Nathan has another Griffith's test - which I thought showed just how their motor skills levels were sitting at - but when I looked up for the link for here I noticed it says its actually a mental development scale :( (here is the link if you would like to find out more about it Griffiths Test

Until it is redone and Nathan's mental age is at the the equiv of 2 years old - we cannot go ahead with the ADI-R testing for Autism.

His speech is sitting at the 15-18 month old level (and he will be 2 1/2 aka 30 months on the 29th Oct)

We got given the diagnosis yesterday of 'Developmentally Delayed' & 'Sensory Processing Disorder'.

This alone could be the problem, but it also can be just ticks in boxes on the Autism scale too...

So yeah fun and games here for us at the moment.
