DS1 had his Paeds appointment today BUt we missed it- DH had a job interview, said it couldn't be until Monday (paeds appt plus worked alst night) but they said he had the job, just formality, but ahd to be today as MD in towwn. So we discussed and he went as regular hours will help Sam A LOT (dh works shifts). He didn't get the job. Only thing that was different? Dh mentioned Sam had Aspergers. MD started throwing pencils at the wall and yawning at that moment. Grrrr. And we can't an appointment with paeds (said he was sick ) until end December now. SHOULD ADD, DH GETTING SAM SUITED HOURS WAS ONLY REASON BEHIND JOB CHANGE SO NOT SHORT CHANGING SAM IN ANY WAY!!!! No extra pay or anything.
Anyway. not what message is about- sorry!!!!
Sam has started an intriguing new thing I thought Aspergers didn't do? Every time he watches Holby , or sees a small child on the news he doesn't just say awww like Stirling, he screams and wails 'poor baby' repeatedly, getting very distressed. Even a baby at school having a tantrum can set this off.
Childminder (also has Aspergers son but older) says this means Sam might not be diagnosed right, but I'm not sure- it's way inappropriate behaviour, totally extreme.
Anyone????
