Do you know a special needs child or are you in fact a parent of a child with special needs? My son, who is nine next month has special needs and is now attending a special needs school but no thanks to the local medical profesion. After four years of going back and fro to the doctors and heath visitors regarding my concerns for my son I was tired, ready to give up, thought it was just me maybe I was the problem maybe I was just being an over protective and paranoid mother. It wasn't until one of Declans teachers mentioned she too had concerns for Declan that the Doctors woke up and started to take notice. Dex has now been diagnosed as having a very slight case of autism. This is now his third year at his new school and is coming on really well and has now learned how to write his own name, I'm extremly proud of my son and jst wanted to post this to give ma boy a big shout well done xx
