Ryan - Early Intervention Evaluation Update

We had Ryan's Early Intervention evaluation this morning. The outcome wasn't what I had hoped it would be but we still have time to get him on track. He will be tested at 30 months "Psychological Evaluation to rule out an Austistic Disorder" but the psychologist saw characterists of an Autistic Disorder today. She has recommended that he continue to receive Occupational, Physical and Speech Therapy.

It looks like that all except for physical will be happening at home with the therapists visiting us here. I'm not sure what we will be doing for his physical therapy at this point. They do not have a physical therapist in our county so I may have to take him back down to Daytona to get that or they may get some kind of waiver for him to continue with it here at the hospital. Robin will be contacting me sometime next week to get all the therapies straightened out and discuss when it will start.

We still have to make the trip to the neurologist next Thursday for his EEG and then in October for his MRI and his genetic testing. (which the psychologist recommended as well) After all of this is done, I will bring everyone up to speed on where we go from there. I'm going to go spend some quality time playing with the little ones; feel like we all need some nice quiet Mommy and me time!
