[quote=Anonymous]Don't despair! My son was diagnosed with suspected CAS and dyspraxia at 2, confirmed at 3. He did intensive speech and OT for years. It was immensely helpful. DH insisted on putting him in sports which I discouraged after several failed attempts at gymnastic classes. However, his OT worked on basic sports skills with him in weekly sessions and DH worked with him daily. I thought DH was in denial but he couldn't be dissuaded and DS seemed to enjoy the attention and was eager to play with his big brother. By 5 he was playing soccer and baseball with his peers. Not good, but playing. By 7 he was actually good. At 8 he is a strong athlete. I never thought it would be possible. His fine motor is still a bit behind but it's not terrible. Oh and his speech is resolved too![/quote]
