STARTING A SUPPORT GROUP FOR GDD AND HYPOTONIA

ok ITS A WILD IDEA, BUT ALSO VERY APPARANT THAT THERE ARE NO SUPPORT GROUPS ONLINE FOR GLOBAL DEVELOPMENT DELAY OR HYPOTONIA.

IN THE LAST FEW WEEKS SO MANY HAVE MENTIONED ONE OR BOTH OF THE ABOVE AND AFTER THE APPOINTMENT YESTERDAY REGARDING DYLAN, IT HAS STRUCK ME THAT I MAY NEVER KNOW THE CAUSES.

AFTER A LOT OF THINKING AND ANGRINESS OVER THE PAST 2 YEARS OF WAITING AND RESEARCH I HAVE GOT KNOW WHERE!!!!!!!!

I WOULD NOW LIKE TO PROPOSE THAT SOMETHING IS DONE ABOUT IT, AND I AM GOING TO LOOK AT CHARITIES AND ORGANISATIONS FOR FUNDING TO START A POSITIVE ONLINE SUPPORT GROUP.

IF ANYONE WOULD LIKE TO GIVE ME FEEDBACK ON THIS IDEA AS OF TO WHETHER YOU THINK IT IS GOOD OR BAD OR OFFER YOUR SUPPORT AND EXPERIENCES IF ANY, IT WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED.

I AM NOT ON A POWER MISSION, NOR A SYMPATHY TRIP, I JUST DONT UNDERSTAND WHY THERE IS NOTHING IN THE WAY OF SUPPORT FOR OTHERS IN THE SAME CIRCUMSTANCES.

I HOPE TO HEAR FROM YOU.

i hope that there a few more online tonight so can get this thread bumped, i really do want to do something to make a difference to others and the more people involved with knowledge or going through it the better it can be.

I agree, there is not much info about even on the net really compared with other disabilities. We need support from others that have the same problems. I am just about to fill in the DLA forms (nightmare), i just don't know what to put. they don't make it easy do they?

butty · 18/11/2005 14:34

No they dont, they ask some really difficult questions that i think are sometimes hard to answer, but i suppose you have to answer them to give a clearer picture of the day to day things.
