MRI

tomorrow is the big day for Nate, he'll be sedated and given an MRI. I think they should be able to tell more from this than most tests. He can't eat after 5am, drink clear liquids after 10am.....11am he needs to be there and the MRI is run at 1pm.

Pre-school

yeppers, I enrolled him, mostly to see if he got any better at talking. He at least is listening and doing what he should be doing for the most part. He is following the lead of the other kids, which won't be an issue for a while yet. He is with mostly girls so this is another plus.

FIND called

Yes, they called to keep in touch. Set up an appointment for Nathan in another month to meet with a doctor. In the mean time have I been keeping up with the paper work, is Nathan improving?

Okay FIND program, no I don't know where that paperwork went, Nathan took the pictures of things and I think I put them back in there. I know I need to put a board somewhere so he can point to what he wants.

Medically my son meets the requirements for the FIND program. I could continue to go this route or I can go visit the homeschool Mom who is a speech pathologist when I get back from enjoying my 12 year old skiing for the first time.

Nathan is talking more than he did last month, but he isn't even close to where his peers are. The guessing games we have to figure out what he wants, as we try to keep him from screaming. He is frustrated at times.

Well for now I have other things I must get done, like find that folder.

There are only 7 places for 3 year olds to attend preschool for the FIND program, it isn't at every elementary school, so I wonder where the closest school is and if I shouldn't just put him in a regular preschool that is close to home and see what he starts doing.
