I had my leg amputated too and I was pretty glad about it because keeping it would have meant a lifetime of disability and I am much less disabled with an amputation than if I had kept my leg. Regardless of that, I don't think your analogy really works. Congratulating someone on their diagnosis is l...

I know this will sound simple, but I'll say it anyway.

Hi! I'm an OT. I'm friends with someone else on this board and I also work with kids who are on the spectrum. What you can expect will be partly based on what the OT specializes in and what she/he expects. (I'll just use female pronouns now because 93% of OT's are female) OT is all based on what you...
