Comments on: Why Does It Matter? http://jenkrause.com/blog/2009/05/why-does-it-matter/ by Jen Sat, 19 May 2012 19:34:13 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=abc By: L Olson http://jenkrause.com/blog/2009/05/why-does-it-matter/#comment-2225 L Olson Thu, 03 May 2012 13:47:18 +0000 http://jenkrause.com/blog/?p=706#comment-2225 I found your video last night on YouTube and your son Luke said the word "star" exactly like my kiddo says it. I just started crying, because deep down I feel like there is something more behind his delay. He is currently in ST and has a significant delay in expressive speech. So far no one has really given a diagnosis and the SLT has said she doesn't not think he has apraxia because he doesn't say a different word each time. They threw around autism and aspergers but we've ruled those out too (he's incredibly social and loving, lots of smiles, etc). I am now trying to learn as much as I can so I can be the best advocate that I can for my son. Thanks so much for all the info!

Im not sure where I first heard this diagnosis. I believe on a blog? I started researching it today and this sounds exactly like my child. The docs are also currently trying to diagnosis him as autistic and I agree that doesn't fit. I plan to start the process of looking at this new diagnosis tomorrow. Again thank you and good luck with your delightful children :) thank you Heather thank you for your website. Im not sure where I first heard this diagnosis. I believe on a blog?
