[quote=Anonymous]My DS has apraxia and MERLD. I agree with the PP that if it's true apraxia, there are likely (not for sure but likely) other muscle issues. Our DS also has low tone and motor planning/coordination issues - not surprising given that apraxia is a disorder of muscles. We suspected apraxia at an early age (@24 mo) and it was confirmed when he ws 3. We had a LOT of great SLPs over the years but I have to say DS did not make significant progress until we started working with a PROMPT certified SLP. I actually first learned about PROMPT here on the SN Forum, did some research and found that it appears to be the most effect therapeutic approach to treating apraxia of speech. You might look into it.[/quote]
