Autism

The first time i saw an autistic child was when i was facilitating for NUS high, he is like any normal boy, at time he will shout and beat himself. What impress me most was, he is a very smart boy who cant express himself. The parents of disable kids are very 伟大, u have my respect. I m not sure if i can handle it, if P has any form of disability.

When P was born premature with low birth weight, we were told that she might be this and that, and cerebral palsy and autistic were something that hit me the most. From the day she came home, we have been observing her behaviour even till now, every visit to her review, we will ask Dr A, if she 'normal' or does she exhibit any trade of the CP or autistic. Perhaps we are paranoid, like Carly's parents, we think that early intervention helps. P has been with OT, PT and even feeding therapist for early intervention since she was discharge from KKH. At ca 18mth, we were relief when she was discharge from all this therapy.

Now that she is in cc, we do get additional eyes and professional advise from her teachers. Now that she is speaking up (ATM thinks that she can really 顶心顶肺 when she speaks), we might nt even need to visit speech therapy :)
