Guest guest Posted January 18, 2008 Report Share Posted January 18, 2008 New update, the Neurologist was in finally & spent at least 1/2 hr on Jerry. He had been called in last time Jerry was in the hospital but never had a chance to see him as he is only there 1 day a week, Wednesdays. He said he is not to leave til at least he returns next week & has booked him for 3 tests, 1 MRI with dye, 1 special MRI on neck arteries & a EEC (I think) which reads the brain waves which isn't done here so it will havce to be booked in Hamilton. At least now Jerry is getting somewhere toward the road to recovery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted December 29, 2008 Report Share Posted December 29, 2008 Kim When I was married in 1992, my then husband had a boy with autism, whom he had custody of. When I needed a dentist for him, I looked in the phone book for demist that specialized in children. I had to call a few but found one who dealt with children with autism. I do know that some autistic children need to go a few times before actually getting the dental work done so they can get comfortable. With my stepson, we just couldn't take him and expect him to react like other children. Change in their daily routine isn't easy for them. I hope that helps. Kathleen for a friend I was talking to a lady and she has a child with autism, and she was telling me that she had to take her son to the dentist. But she wanted someone that dealt with Autism. If anyone has any suggestions, I told her I would ask around. Please do pass on your suggestions, and I will gladly pass them onto her. Thanks you so much. ------------------------------------ ~~~~ *** ~~~ *** ~~~ *** ~~~~ The Being Sick Community Message Archives-/messages Chat:- Scheduled Chats at /chat Bookmarks:- Add a website URL you have found useful. /links Personal Complaints or problems:- Please contact a moderator email: -owner Subscription Details:- 1) Individual email - means that every email sent to the list you receive. 2) Daily Digest - sends you 25 messages in one single email for you to browse.

Guest guest Posted December 29, 2008 Report Share Posted December 29, 2008 My son has Aspergers which is on the upper scale of autism. What I normally do before he sees any new dr is to explain ahead of time that he has Aspergers, what it entails and if they are set up for that type of patient. In most cases, he does pretty well but has real problems with eye contact and speaking up in a public situation. His pediatrician is the best..sits down and talks to him at his level and explains everything..rather then talking to me. Terri B Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
