Hi, I created a new thread as the old one is reaching its limit.

Are your children’s vaccines up to date?

Set a reminder

Hi all scan date 5th of August here. I've just got off the phone and he said it's just been allocated to a decision maker this week . Although he didn't give a day. I'm a bit apprehensive as I'm sure it's the same person that told me that around 3 weeks ago when I called but everyone else I spoke to after said it hadn't been allocated. Getting so nervous now. I only sent a supporting letter from my child's school with contact info on it for them to call. I'd even forgot to include the letter from the asd assesment unit to say that he was on the referral list. He was awarded dla when he was 4 but the asd assesment found that he didn't have autism as he had all traits but could keep eye contact. Now he is 11 and it is more apparent I was advised that he would probably get a different diagnosis. Im just hoping he gets the help he needs and the diagnosis he deserves.

Have just got off the phone to them, they are looking at 3rd August at the moment. My scan date is the 16th August and he said I am looking at around the 15th November for a decision.

Congratulations on being awarded I’m gonna cal today I think the anxiety is killing me

Kas76 · 04/11/2022 10:06

I sent school report info that I got from senco a letter saying he's on waiting list to asd assessment and a school psychologist report. I must admit that the school are brilliant and they are helping him loads so that probably had a big impact on the decision. He has no diagnosis and is waiting to see paediatrics. X

Gemma96x · 04/11/2022 10:01

Kas76 · 04/11/2022 09:56
