Alone and dealing with DS ASD diagnosis.

[Vonnie2016]

Hi everyone,
I think I just need to get this off my chest really.
Been a single mum for two years have DD 7 and DS 4.
last week my DS was diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder, I knew it was coming but to see it in black and white threw me a bit.
I am just scared to death about doing this.
Sounds stupid, but after the initial pro active positive attitude, I have hit a low point.
I guess it's normal to feel scared?
It's hard enough being a single parent, but doing it with a child with additional needs really worries me.
Obviously I will just get on with it but i am worried you know?

come over to the goose and carrot in special needs chat and get yourself some support. or a lot of virtual gin

sign up for local carers emails and you can get on some helpful courses.

ds is autistic, dd is on the very long waiting list to be diagnosed.

Thanks Blackeyed virtual Gin sounds just the ticket.
