I'm very confused

[Guest guest]

Hi All

 

I really need some body's opinion and advice.

I'm very confused.

Few days ago, my daughter was diagnosed as high moderate side of apraxia by the

director of Neurology department in children hospital.

Same day, my daughter's private SLP who has been tasting her apraxia, told us

that my daughter doesn't seem to have apraxia, though she admits that she

is trouble understanding her.  

 

I have been believed in that she may have apraxia by reading these apraxia

website.

She is certainly struggling with letting the words out and trouble

making correct sentence, she gets lost when she talk about something.  

Most of the people I know don’t understand 70% of her words include my

husband even school teacher.

 

My daughter's Private ST is very sweet and quite young. My daughter likes her,

but I don't know if I should keep her whom doesn't believe her diagnose.

My daughter is in Private ST for close to 9 month, but because she has not

been treated as apraxia therapy her improvement has been very slow.

We are very irritated because we have been paying for this therapy (we've got

denial from Insurance company) for more than 8 months and doesn't see any

significant improvement.    Be honest we could not afford this therapy

anymore.

 

One more question is my teacher is curious to know what is going on with her as

she knows my daughter had app. with Dr.

Should I keep mouth shot until upcoming IEP meeting in the end of May?

This IEP meeting is very important for my daughter. Not only she is in the

transaction period from Preschool to Kinder, and we are hoping that school

district will pay for her private therapy.

 

As the summer vacation is head of her, we are very nervous. If my daughter has

apraxia, I believe she does, she really needs very intensive individual therapy,

and we could not afford to keep her out of ST during the summer.

 

We were told from IEP that she has been doing very well, she talks a lot, she'll

be fine going to the kinder, I don't see it.

We were waisted all these years, we could not afford any more.

 

Any advice or opinion will be very greatful.

Thank you very much.
