Hello all. Tis me.
A good few of you may remember me (autistic, dyspraxic, breast cancer etc) and FineLad, our DS who has dyspraxia, dyslexia, ASC, short term memory processing problems. The one whose secondary school told us that he would never amount to anything, given he can't write things down properly and can't hold an instruction in his brain for more than a couple of seconds.
Well, after being made prefect of his school and leaving with a bundle of GCSEs and A levels, and being awarded a place at Uni to study Psychology and Counselling (course with no exams and tons of help), and playing national rugby, he's just been offered a part in a major production at Edinburgh Festival this summer!!!
How overjoyed can any mum be at how determined their DS is to overcome every single obstacle in his life!
Never ever give up.
