Come on guys. I think this joke is Finnished now.![]()
I prefer to make friends the old-fashioned way.

*buys you a beer*
You (S) w(ed)ish.
Ok, ok, I deserve a spanking for this one.
( loking around hopefuly?)


So two things are happening.
1) The electric blanket Seela and Elle inspired me to buy (which will undoubtedly be commandeered at gunpoint by my cat) will supposedly arrive in a few hours.
2) Now waiting for a date to see a psychologist or therapist or somebody else qualified to make diagnoses to tell me what's wrong with me since it turns out I don't have Wilson's disease and there's nothing physiologically wrong.
Yes I will be as vague and ambiguous as possible.
I'm now taking bets for the pot on what mental disease I have.
Roll up roll up place yer bets, a shilling a guess.

Not a bad thing in my book!
Did you expect this? It's good she is now going to be recognised for who she is!![]()

This is good news, even if it feels not like it.She is going to get great support to be her best self and you can know her as her, not as someone 'just delayed'.
.
I have to agree with this, even though it may feel intimidating to you. You did the right thing and got the diagnoses. Too many people stay in denial land until forced to deal with it when the child enters school. You just gave your daughter the best possible chance in life that you could. Well done, mama bear![]()
Along the lines of diagnoses....
My daughter was diagnosed with Autism spectrum disorder today....
You really shouldn't be sad. You're already doing better than my parents did throughout their entire parental careers so I already know she'll ultimately be better off than most people with a mental illness are.It's been the looming elephant in the room for a while now. She's always been behind in her developmental milestones. She's a few months past two and has yet to say her first word. We saw the neurologist today that just confirmed our fears. Until now everyone just said "delayed, she's just delayed. She just needs some extra help." Now she'll be seeing a behavioral therapist, speech therapist, and occupational therapist.
I'm giving myself today, and only today to be sad and upset about it. I need to lace up my momma bear boots and get ready to claw and fight for her.

I agree with collar, it's a great parenting call.
........
My mother has a cateract surgery tomorrow. G asked if I were worried about it for her, I expressed mild surprise and said at least someonegets to gouge at her eye tomorrow.
Not so sweet Elle, huh?![]()

The amount of mail we're getting for the elections is ridiculous. Now I'm getting calls.;; At this point it almost feels like harassment.
. They kept a tally of political survey calls on the refrigerator that year and that was number 51 or something like that.Along the lines of diagnoses....
