Hi

When you lined up your OT, did you use the one the Dr. recommended. If not

how did you go about choosing one? I've got to find an OT for Micah, his hand

writing is now back to what it looked like in 2nd grade. He is losing this

skill, just since 5th grade.

I watched a video on the TS web site for OTs. It was very helpful. It does

say that it may take some searching though to find an OT that has good

training in working with TS, OCD and Dysgraphia.

Looked at the OT web site for MO, but they list no names.

Thanks

Hi BJ, the occupational therapy really helped. His writing was

better and legible after it.

And wanted to add that the neurologist did prescribe OT for him and

helped insurance cover it. But an additional thought is if I had

needed to use some type " proof " for insurance purposes is that I

could show 's writing BEFORE his OCD began and then AFTER it

began, it was like a " lost skill " that he could have rehabilitation

on so that helped his insurance pay for OT. Some insurance won't pay

to, say, improve a skill but if a skill is " lost " will pay for

therapy.
