wendy28 Report post Posted October 8, 2010 Hello My name is Wendy & I am 44 yrs old, I have a 10 yrs old son with ASD. We have finally after 7 yrs managed to get him into a special school, it's been a fight & we are still fighting for his DLA!! Will we ever have a bit of an easy time?!! This I doubt very much!! I am married to Andy & we have an older daughter whois nearly 13 yrs old. If I can be of any help to anyone please send me a message - there's lots of us out there that need a shoulder at some time or other. Best wishes Wendy Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kathryn Report post Posted October 9, 2010 Hi Wendy, Will life ever be easy? Probably not - speaking as a parent of a 21 year old. But you pick up a lot of experience and good companions along the way! Welcome aboard. I'm sure lots of people will be interested to hear about your experiences in fighting for a special school.
