Re: new here, introduction

[Guest guest]

Jaclyn, Welcome I am fairly new here and I tell you the support is

unlike anything else! Thanks to everyone I too don't feel so alone anymore.

I don't post often usually I just have questions but I do read a lot and I

have learn so much. I have a 2.10 month old little boy and we have EI (no

longer

speech since she wasn't working on things I thought and our private SLP she

should be working on.) My money is ruining low and I told me private SLP and

she told me that I am a good SLP and to cont. with what we are doing and she

also told me to make sure I had contact with the school SLP and to work on what

they are doing. I guess I am trying to say is I think we all are SLP and if

you don't reinforce what they do in school the progress isn't going to be much

so keep on working with your child and use the school SLP as your resource.

If you can have another IEP meeting and increase the ST to include the missed

private session try to get it one on one too since many speech problems don't

work on the same treatment plan as a child with apraxia. Welcome! -Clare

Welcome, Jaclyn!

This is the place - advice, suggestions, shoulders, and tissues are

available here! Have you purchased the book, The Late Talker? It is sort of

the " bible " for this group as the founder co-wrote it (

Hi. I'm Jaclyn. My husband and I live in Texas with our 5yo son and

4 yo daughter. My son Braedon was diagnosed with verbal Apraxia when

he was 3. He is now 5 and will be starting kindergarten in one

month. He was also born with Glaucoma and has asthma.

We are about to go ahead and get a complete work up on him to

determine if there are any other factors (Dr's tried to tell us

early on he was high functioning Autistic to later say verbal

Apraxia).

He has done speech therapy through the school system fro two years

and worked with a private therapist fro about 1.5 yrs. (our

insurance no longer covers his therapy and I got laid off 2 months

ago, DH has been laid off for two years so we can not afford a

therapist).

Anyway, I am looking forward to becoming part of the group. It seems

like I could not find anyone to talk to that understands Apraxia,

now I have found you

Love,

Jaclyn

Welcome ! I'm with you in the depression postpartum. I did that

with my second. Now, I'm 6 months postpartum after my third and feel

great with the exception of a few pounds I'd like to lose.(= I think it

really makes a huge difference what you eat, not only in the way of

nutrients, but you feel better about yourself when you know that you

eating good.

It does make a big difference to have control over *something* when

everything in life feels out of control. And it is powerful that the

diet and lifestyle changes can keep it from happening again.

Welcome to the list! WOW--you are one lucky dog to live where you

live. I grew up in Berkeley and I love love love your neck of the

woods and craftsman homes. Looks like you have your work cut out for

you with the house. My father restored our house room by room over a

20 year period and now it's gorgeous (redwood paneling and all).

Glad you found us.

Stop by if you are ever in the area. We're pretty secluded and not on

many people's list of destination vacations, but it is nice. The

house is on a 30-year plan. It needs a whole lot of work. It used to

be filled with redwood and knotty pine paneling but that was harvested

by a local to be used in his vacation cabins back in the 1960s. The

cabins either burned down or were condemned, so the paneling is gone.

The house has a very colorful history of drugs and prostitution;

anything that lives that hard can't be in very good shape. Time and a

chunk of change should help out a lot.
