I am getting really stressed out about it. Firstly I will have to take her out of nursery early to make it to the hospital on time. It's meant to be her first week with 3 sessions and not only am I taking her out early tomorrow, she will be off the next 5 Wednesdays for SALT!
Secondly, I'm not sure about parking, it's away from the main hospital and CDC. I asked about parking and she said, "oh no problem, there's disabled parking in front of the Disablement Centre!" well that's hunky dory for those who have got a blue badge. I explained this, and she suggested that I go in, get a parking permit and put it in the car. Sounding really ungrateful but in RL it's just not that easy with DD in tow. I feel it's going to be such a rush.
I was apprehensive about it beforehand but it's been made even worse today. The physio popped in to DD's SN nursey this morning to see another child and had a quick look at dd while she was there. Anyway the Physio rang me later & said she was very please with the progress dd has made with her AFO's.I should be really pleased,but,,,
she seemed really negative about dd getting a major, and went on about using vital resources when they weren't needed!!!
I kept my calm and tried to explain that although dd is walking better, to expect her to do 4 trips to/from school on some days was just NOT possible without the use of a buggy. I tried to stress that I was not dealing with a 3 yr old who "just" had hyperextended knees, I was dealing with a child with DS and had to deal with a whole host of other issues on a daily basis.
Now I'm feeling like a really useless mum, as if I just bung her in the buggy with no thought or effort.
Sorry rather long, rambling post!
