Been a While: Part 1

So much for blogging on a regular basis! Going back to school has taken up a lot of my time. I am going to try to blog on a more consistent basis for now on. I don't have a lot of time so I will try to bring this blog up to date in parts.

Where to begin to bring everyone up to date without writing a book. Let's see. We finally were able to get the psychological evaluation completed. I feel that in some aspects it was a complete and total waste of time. When we went to the feedback session to go over the results, the doctor said to take his diagnoses with a grain of salt because he is not even sure he got it right. As of right now she is diagnosed with having: major depressive disorder, generalized anxiety disorder, cognitive disorder nos, and oppositional defiant disorder. He also put in that we need to rule out mood disorder based in a neurological defect and pervasive developmental disorder. He also said that if she is diagnosed with PDD then the first two diagnoses would just roll up under that. So I am in the process of trying to get DD into the Learning Center at Texas Children's Hospital and feel that it is going to take an act of Congress to get it done. I have to say that her pediatrician's office has been very helpful in getting the referrals done and keeping me up to date.

More on the journey tomorrow....
