You know, I'm sick of Michelle just flinging out words and diagnosises just as she pleases!! Today at Molly's speech session, she announces that she now thinking dyspraxia (on top of everything else!!) but I've done some reading and to me, dyspraxia seems *it* BUT you know the thing that really gets me...this,
CAUSES
Dyspraxia is not the result of poor physical strength, impaired primary sensation, delayed development, body deformity, or anything that would show up on normal neurological examination. It can be acquired through damage to the brain from a STROKE, an accident, or medical disaster to the brain. These people are often older, and have a neurological memory of praxis to work towards. However, damage acquired at an early age may also impair the normal course of development, and thus be developmental. Developmental Dyspraxia occurs from birth or an early age, thus affecting the normal development of the child, and its causes are not obvious. There may be an inherited tendency towards similar neurological disorders.
A freaking stroke - something that they've all said all along, that Molly DIDN'T have, so what, now it's a possibility???!!! #*$@(*@@ I seriously wish they'd sort it out and get the facts/story/whatever straight!! Oh, and the best thing she said today, the blondest, most stupidest....what are your goals for Molly? ME: we want her to talk HER: yeah, but we need to break it down ME: Okay michelle, you've now flung a new word in here that I have no clue about - we're running blind it this, we have no clue at what each condition means for Molly - you're meant to be the one guiding us through this. HER: so we need to talk goals. OMG, it takes all my strength not to poke her eyes out.
