Finally!

Lizzy’s appointment went very well. I liked the doctor. The diagnoses were pretty much what we expected:

Asperger’s:  http://www.answers.com/topic/asperger-s-syndrome

non-verbal learning disability: http://www.med.umich.edu/1libr/yourchild/nld.htm

and anxiety.

He’s going to write out the testing results and mail them to me, and then I’ll take them into the clinic here and get her set up with a psychologist or whatever for behavioral therapy.  I am so happy that this is finally done.

Oh, and he said that her IQ was normal, so to all those who tried to write her off as mentally retarded, I say “Nyah!” and thumb my nose at you. :)

  1. That is AWESOME! I’m so stoked the appt went well for you. I can’t wait for our turn…wherever we end up going…

  2. Wow- I’m so glad it’s done and there wasn’t a catastrophe like a blizzard or something. Not like we could have waited another 17 months!! Praise God that it’s done and we have some direction now! Nice job, honey!
