Can't seem to stop, haven't done it for ages but am feeling particularly anxious (as in even more than usual!) as had a few words with XP earlier and ended up saying I just want to know whats wrong with DD in front of her. She has quite limited understanding but still, awful of me. Anyway I have been obsessing over diagnosis all night (waiting for a genetics appointment soon and the results of an EEG).
DD has SLI and I have been told we may never have a cause and won't know much about how she will or will not develope learning wise until she is 7 or 8.
She also has a genetic condition that affects her medically and she isn't that well tonight so feeling anxious about that.
He learning difficulties seem to be becoming so much more noticable suddenly, I keep noticing things like her hand coordination is very poor, almost shakey and she is very jerky when running around at the moment I don't know if she has always been like this.
It will feel better tomorrow I am sure, it just seems to be taking lonbger to get my head around the learning issues than it did the genetic condition. I hate that I can't even know if she will have a job, relationship etc and its seeming less likely. I do know others are far worse off though and she is very lovely and mostly happy I just feel very worried about the future.
