Eva Report post Posted May 7, 2006 Hello! My name's Eva and I'm from Australia. I found this site this morning and it looks so good I just had to join! I have two sons, Joe who's 5 and has HFA/AS (pending dx) and Michael who's 2.5 and is NT. Joe goes to mainstream kindy 3 sessions a week and he does an EI pre-prep programme two days a week (all day too, got to love it!). Next year he's starting school and I'm already stressed just thinking about it. I'm looking forward to posting here! It seems like a very supportive and friendly forum, something that I've been looking for for ages. Regards, Eva Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

helenl53 Report post Posted May 7, 2006 Hi Eva Now we know that you are in Oz - will you sponsor us all for a mass emigration TV keeps running ads asking "where the ###### are we" Have you read the book 'Hunna Pappy' - it was written by the mum of one of my cousin in law's clients who live in Adelaide. I am reading it at the moment and it is quite heartwarming. Welcome - the world is a very small place! HelenL Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Eva Report post Posted May 9, 2006 Hi Helen, no I haven't read that book but I'll definitely search for it now! I'm about to start 'The Bookthief' although I should be reading something about how to get your child to poo and not hold on. All the best, Eva I'll happily sponser everyone, (if you could stand living under a conservative, 1950's inspired Government!).

The book is by Mary Centenera - Publishers Peacock Publications, Adelaide and the issie bizzie number is ISBN1876087870 You may be able to order it from your library.
