And the ball is rolling

I am pleased to say the meeting at the school went well last week. I felt much better about leaving certain questions unanswered before getting the full reason for the question being asked. We spent almost 2 hours with the board psychologist going through our answers, discussing our thoughts, providing our input and basically presenting our son to her through our eyes.

She spent the remainder of the day with him. She called me upon the completion of the day to let us know how her time with him went. The first block of his day seemed to smooth, the afternoon - not so much. She heard alot of *I'm tired* *It's too hard!* *I can't do it* - which as odd as it is to say, Im glad she saw it. Myles seemed to show his true colours which I firmly believe will help when heading down the road of diagnoses.

He's gone to his last two social skills classes which he has come home saying how much fun they are, but informed me tonight before he went that he was *kinda getting tired of camp!*. We have a few more weeks left, I guess we will see what the outcome is.

This past week or so has been tough. We've seen this complete transistion in our child again. For a few weeks he was doing his homework with no issues, getting ready when asked, not temper tantrums or meltdowns. It was almost like the calm before the storm. This past Sunday we spent 4 hours doing homework. Through outbursts, meltdowns and frustration (his and ours) we finally got the last bit of his language homework done and the 3 required sentances about his french book. Yup - 4 hours for that! Melt downs when it's time to go to school in the morning, negotiating a day off from school - you name it. I wish we knew what the triggers were and try to stop these times before they start.

The psycologist spent some more time with our son yesterday. There was a meeting with the school staff and the psycologists and they are now ready for the results meeting. Thursday May 24th we will meet with the psycologist and the school staff to discuss her findings and recommendations. That day can't come fast enough.........
