Anybody with personal experience in Global Developmental Delay????

[Minnerva]

Would really appreciate any advice or personal stories as we have just had a 3 year old girl come to us-it was her 3rd birthday yesterday so after she had arrived dh nipped to the shops and bought her some toys-we sang 'happy birthday' etc but as far as I can tell,she is not aware that it was her birthday.

I always seem to be on here pleading for advice but I hope that one of you lovely mumsnetters somewhere has some advice or experience that I can chuck into the melting pot-much appreciated.
