So what happens now?

The last post was written nearly 2 months ago. It's been a freight train since then.

I called the potential new school and spent quite a long time talking about Cyclone - they liaised with the principal of his school and feel that he would do very well there. They only have about 20 students and have alot of them are Spectrum kids . I am hopeful for awhile. They have a brilliant record of success, the children go for a year, then are transferred into a mainstream school after that.

There are 3 weeks until the end of term so I ask that he continues till then. The school arranges him to go to the classes he feels happiest in and keeps up the good work they have already done. Each day he chooses a different classmate to work with one on one. This way the kids get to know him a little more and learn he really is just like them........underneath the anxiety and rage.

It's now only half days, 3 times a week and the driving is killing me. 30 mins there and back for him to be there 3 hours. I'm exhausted.


We move house and it's not too bad. It's not far, the kids are used to the house. We are all more sad than anything. Cyclone keeps asking why we had to move and in exasperation I tell him someone is going to pay mummy lots of money to live in our house. His latest obsession is money and he seems rather satisfied by that...

I know he is a slow-release Apsy, I won't see immediate effects of the move until a few weeks later.

Oh btw - we have a firm diagnosis of Aspergers right in the middle of all this..
