Now in the last days of March, we have started ABA intake and at the most recent Triennial IEP meeting (which has been ongoing since September) I signed a release form for the school district to discuss placement outside of the public school district. Both of these developments make me want to roar - because it has taken a lot of work to make them happen.
ABA can help get James support to learn self care, from brushing his teeth to taking baths on his own initiative. It can include social events and opportunities. It means James and I get a break from each other. It means James gets help learning life skills to become independent.
Better placement for school goes a long way to my peace of mind for James' future, after disappointments and broken promises over the past 2 years.
Yes, I want to roar. Finally, help for James! Who is grrrrreat!
