Think ds teacher is a bitch

It’s ds (7) Christmas assembly this afternoon, his school won’t call it a play or a nativity for some reason. I’m determined to go as he’s worked so hard and has asd so wouldn’t understand if I didn’t come. I recently had surgery on my urethra and now have a catheter for a while which the catheter added to the pain from stitches in my urethra mean it’s really tough to get out and nearly impossible to sit anywhere comfortably except my recliner at home and due to the pain and exhaustion I can’t stand long.

She has been amazing he’s stayed off work and done Everything! He took ds to school this morning and asked ds teacher if it would be possible to find a softer chair maybe from the library or an office? “No we won’t do that”
would be possible to reserve me a seat, “no I’m not doing that”
So I have to try to either sit on a hard bench or try to stand for probably two hours! Bearing in mind it was mils birthday the other day and we went out for a meal where I sat on the comfiest chair we could find and only stayed long enough to eat and it was utter agony and I cried the whole way home.

I’m probably being over sensitive because everyone’s opinion is just don’t go.
But I’ve missed so much of Christmas with ds already and I just wanted this one thing to see him be an inkeeper because his autism means it’s been so horrible for him having me be in hospital and then not doing anything when im home either.

If he doesnt have an EHCP, then what is this high level of funding he gets?

Aww op. You sound like you have enough on your plate. What about hiring a wheelchair from the red cross ??

My oh can't cook either........well he can but nothing Id particularly want to eat Hmm when i'm ill I get him to buy the ready prepped cous.cous/ salad / chicken etc. Not the sort of thing id eat all the time but at least its edible and semi healthy.

Ah yes, schools that get plenty of extra funding for children who don’t have an ehcp..... umm.... what school is that?!

Why would they be dragging their heels to get an ehcp which would in turn mean more money? Isn’t it more likely a case of backlogs or waiting lists to be seen by certain in demand people to build up evidence?
