Finally after 16yrs of trying, someone actually listened!! My daughter had her assessment last Tuesday and already I have received the report and diagnosis. She does indeed have ASD and according to the report it is quite a high level and she needs a huge amount of support in all areas.
I am so grateful to doctor Liley for seeing her and for all her advice. Hopefully we can now move forward and get her all the help and support she needs. I feel like a huge weight has been lifted from me.
I think maybe schools should take note and realise, don't label a child a naughty child and kick them out of school, look a little deeper and listen to the parents. If this had happened in my daughters case she could have got the help she needed years ago!!
