grannys gone and done it

he is 8. when he was 2 -3 dont remember all he would do is scream. no words.  Mom got him to say his first words by singing them. Heyy naaanaaa  . everything was delayed.  he seems very confused by stuff. They wont test him to find out exactly whats wrong.

Why won't they test him. Speach therapy and stuff is pretty amazing now a days. Gives kids a good chance. All my kids started out with Ieps but I had vinnie tested and they really focused his learning to help.

Quote: Have the teachers suggested testing? Does he speak well now? My #1 did not develop typically for any of the major milestones... smiling, walking, talking, running, jumping, and especially social skills. But he seems good now. You'd have to know him really well to see the quirky side.

Forgot crawling! He started crawling and then figured out rolling was much faster. He was a good roller!

I had forgot that. He does get speech. teachers recommended. but as far as why he needs speech who knows? I dont know why they wont test. Some people dont like their kids labled but those are the parents that realize the problems and works on them. These guys dont know and IMO just too lazy to find out.

Just got dinner done. Fries were beaping... Turned off timer but forgot to turn off heat... So they are extra crispy lol, but since chilli and slaw are topping them I think they will be okay.

You know, when DD got pregnant with CB the drs. were doing blood work and he tested /she tested, I dont know how that went for something called Trisomi (sp)18. It causes sever defects. Not many are born alive and those that are die soon. DD and SIL came and sat at my table while he did most of the talking. They needed the amniotic fluid tested to confirm but they(he) had decided if that came back bad they would abort. . Now, I know my DD and I knew this was not her decision but his. I got mad. I said what makes you think DD even believes in this ? He just kept going on. He didnt know me well enough. So I flew off the handle . I said you are not God and neither are these drs. I made DD stand up and tell him what was in her heart. Of course he was born with a strong heart but I wonder if this had something to do with the cancer. I also wonder if this is why they dont get along so well. No fault of the childs but maybe being pushed away

Quote: That's what he started doing! Then accidentally rolled over which he soon figured out he could do on purpose. Got him where he wanted to go much faster!

Eventually he started pulling up on furniture... I figured the first step would soon follow. Nope. He stood up, plopped on all fours, and started CRAWLING! At almost a year, he got it down finally!

I've never heard of this. Every moral difference does cause a break in a relationship. It's never easy... Then to deal with the cancer on top... And your DDs own health problems is not something that is easy to survive and come out unmarred. I wouldn't wish it on my worse enemy.. Not all things make up stronger... Some things really do break you down and you start feeling less than you are... You start thinking that you have to go against yourself because of guilt. I still do this... And I'm not anywhere near what Dixie has gone through.
