Well, she's a great mum and from everything I've read (here and in other threads) it sounds like you are too. I don't know how I'd could cope with one spectrum child, let alone multiple!


Thanks arem :)

Yet they say Aspergers isn't genetic.


Amazing, no?

Actually, we're being seen through a large center, and we've been referred to their genetics division...they're on the cutting edge of research and they say that, yes, it can be. So there's some hope of people getting it right :wink:

siuan,

where in the northeast are you located? I, too, am in the cold northeast. You mention an isolated region, no services, long drives to the doctors. I'm assuming you live in a rural area? I'm in a suburban-city type area 10 miles or so from the city. But, services aren't fantastic. I'm looking for a psychologist that specializes in ASD's within a 10-20 mile radius, that participates in my insurance...tricky business.

Ohio. Fortunately, close enough to Cleveland that it's worth the drive. Unfortunately, not close enough that we can drive there several x/wk for services :(
