[quote=Anonymous]My DS was diagnosed with possible apraxia at 20 months. Like a PP noted, it wasn't a true diagnosis at that age, but it was clear he had motor planning issues with speech. He did PROMPT therapy with a PROMPT certified instructor until the spring before he went to kindergarten. Progress was super slow at first. We took a couple small breaks in there for a few months at 3 and 4 because his SLP wanted to see if maturity helped some specific difficulties. DS is almost 8 now. No real speech issues that anyone else notices, although I think his Ls are still a little off. He does have some other issues, like pretty severe ADHD. He also still shows some physical motor planning difficulties. While he's naturally quite athletic, he has trouble watching someone, lik a coach, demonstrate something (like a move in soccer) and then executing it. So the things we saw issues with when he was very young still linger but in different ways. [/quote]
