Guest guest Posted April 13, 2005 Report Share Posted April 13, 2005 Wow some of the stories are amazing. Where do you live? Iam in NY. Tori has been attending a private school through early intervention since she was 3yrs old, her attention span has improved alot in the last few months. She will be in an inclusion class where she will receive her ot, pt and speech at a regular elementary school. She is looking forward to going to kindergarten.. Does any of you have your kids in an extra circulative activity. Tori just started gymnastics last week and loves it. Re: I am new Hi there, Your story seems similar to ours. I'm Leah and my youngest daughter, Olivia, is also 5! She's just a touch older than Tori, she was born Nov. 23/99. Olivia was premature weighing 1 lb 11 oz but on her due date she was 3lb 6oz, so if they would have let me go to term Tori and Olivia would have been just the same! Olivia's in kindergarten this year but we're holding her back to do it again next year. She's right on target and has everything down pat but her attention span is very short and she won't sit still at all so we're going to give her one more year to mature before we look seriously into ADD, etc. You've found a great group of people here, we're like a big family. If you want to e-mail me privately my e-mail is t-lfuller @shaw.ca (without the space). Leah, mom to 10 and Olivia 5, 22lbs, 34.5 " , RSS, OI, omeprazole, lactulose, tums, Pamidronate treatments. > > Hi my breif story.
