Mum has been running herself ragged the past few weeks, getting really rather irate about the fact that no-one seems to be setting any targets or working towards my IEP (Individual Education Plan).
She's got a busy week with me this week, we are off to a special hearing clinic - we tried the traditional methods of testing my hearing but I can hardly be expected to understand the "Raise your hand when you hear the beep" instructions. Not just because of my autism but also because I am only 4! So we have a fun few hours locked in a room with a very nice lady who specialises in working with kids like me.
We also have a follow up appointment at a CDAC (Communication Disorder Assessment Clinic), hence the reason Mum has been hassling the education and health professionals even more than she normally does!
Imagine her embarrassment when she got a call from my school, essentially asking her to "Chillax", there was never any intention of me having an IEP or any targets in place until after Easter. These first few weeks are all about getting me settled before the real work begins.
I think Mum would have appreciated someone letting her know before now....
