Guest guest Posted October 7, 2008 Report Share Posted October 7, 2008 Hi, my name is Kim and I have a 3 1/2 year old son. He has been going to specch therapy for almost a year now with no results. We recently started going to a new speech therapist and she suggested that he has apraxia of speech. So needless to say I have been researching online all day everyday trying to find out exactly what apraxia is. I have read alot about fish oils and was wondering if it does in fact help some children. My son has not been offically diagnosed with anything yet. He has been tested for autism, sensory issues, speech and language delay, you name it hes been tested for it. All of the above he does not have. Apraxia is a new one for me and I'm just trying to get a better understanding of it. I have been trying to get my son son to talk for almost 2 years now and its heart breaking to see other children younger than my son carring on full conversations with others when he cant put more than two words together. I'm emotionally drained, I avoid family functions and outings because I'm sick and tired of all the careless comments people make about my son. I love him more than anything in the whole world. all I want is to be able to talk to him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
