Getting Back to Normal

Slowly but surely things are getting back to normal now. The meds are clearly working and he isn't so bothered by sensory input. I can now wash his bedding without fear of a bad night as the bedding 'doesn't feel right' or is 'too scratchy'. He is managing to visit the library every week as well. Sadly his teaching assistant is still poorly and unable to meet him so we have been seeing the head of the school's support dept. She has started to send him emails about what is happening in school and photos of the school itself to help with transition work. Hopefully at the next multi professional meeting we will know more about how his TA is and whether she will be able to return to work. If not how long til a replacement is found so that my boy can start building a proper relationship with them. All this is holding everything up at the moment but it is giving him chance to get used to going out again on a regular basis.

Christmas is nearly here and all preparations have been completed. My boy doesn't seem overly bothered this year although he is loving the chocolate advent calendar. There isn't very much on his wish list, but that's no bad thing as I have now given up work, due to my parents being unable to help out anymore. Money is tight, but I'm sure we'll manage. (Fingers crossed).

Have a good Christmas everyone. Love, happiness and peace to all. xxx
