...ready for another bout of what seems like non-stop appointments.

Tomorrow, we actually have a home visit from a physiotherapist. I think this is a spin off from our team around the child meeting, as I mentioned I had not been present at a physio session for well over a year, her physio has now retired and she was in "no-mans land!" In the last year she had 1 official appointment at her SNN, where as before they were seeing her almost monthly at the hospital in the groups.

Yesterday we got a letter confirming another 4 group SALT sessions- lets hope they go better than the last ones. ie 6 3 yr old with DS, all with straws and only 1 ping pong ball to blow! Guess who was on the end of the line!

Today we have had a letter from the OT department.
They are offering Amelia x6 sessions, 1 hour per week for 6 weeks!!!
Only been fighting for 18 months to see an OT too! The appointment times were completely un-suitable- clashed with SNN, lunch, Crossroads, and I need to check with MS nursery who want to attend some sessions to continue the therapy at nursery!

Just booked in her audiology check and now waiting for her eye-check to come through!!!

Better dose myself up with a good ol' tonic and boost my engeries!
