Best wishes for it all Pothunter. We had a similar wait for the first appointment, then a wait for input, but when it came, it was brilliant

Was about 2 years here too but once that diagnosis came through it has certainly helped. The school Grandson is at have had to now listen rather than insisting he will fit into their ways.

How are all you and your young folks coping? Thomas (he is 16) practices social distancing all the time anyhow but we are having a hands washing issue as he never uses the toilets at school normally, he wain’t use hand sanitizer or wipes ( sensory stuff). He comes home at lunchtime But that’s not enough.. I have suggested taking a face flannel in a plastic bag so he can at least wipe his hands. Any other ideas?

Is there a sink that's not in a toilet where Thomas could be allowed to wash his hands "normally" if he had some soap he doesn't mind using in his bag?

Joe's not been too bad a lot of anxiety the other day. Joe's school looks as if it will be stating open until Easter break.

Joe is very anxious this morning - you can almost see his brain doing somersaults

Trouble is Joe social distances for 11.5 months of the year, with the exception of school & the very odd trip to HMV, world apart - he may occasionally go into Game.
