[quote=Anonymous]I remember feeling exactly the same when they told me my then 2.5 year old DD would be eligible for services.
Partially relieved, just as you were that my concerns were validated and I now had a professional team to turn to rather than the whirring, anxious thoughts and questions in my own head and Dr. Google. At the same time, my heart sank a bit and in a way I was surprised that they didn't just tell me I was overreacting or that her issues were within the normal range. Your DS is so young and it is fabulous that you are getting connected to services and professional guidance so early. Kudos to you - as hard as the "not knowing" is to live and deal with, you can take comfort that you are doing everything right, everything you can for your bit in getting the ball rolling and the help he needs. You are a good mama.
My DD is now 7 and has come so far - partially due to services, and partially due to maturity. But I know what you mean about "awareness" - other children could hear my words and if could see on their face that they were taking them in, or processing them. With my DD the words never seemed to penetrate, with the exception of very concrete, basic things. But she has grown by leaps and bounds, and your DS will too.[/quote]
