Speech Therapy

So Ethan met with a speech pathologist from the school district yesterday, for another speech evaluation. Now that was interesting. Ethan woke up 2 hours early, so by the time she got there Ethan was very ready for a nap and wanted nothing to do with her. Luckily he gave her just enough attention to get through all the testing, and then passed out while she was talking with Elijah and me. Ethan did qualify for their services, so we will be having a therapist from the school district coming to our house and working with him and us, weekly.

Ethan met another speech therapist that he will be seeing at the Primary Children's Rehab in Sandy. Her name is Jonel. He also sees Emily every Friday, there as well.

His first appointment with Jonel went pretty well. Ethan played pretty well with her, and I think Jonel got an idea of what's going on with Ethan. She did suggest some occupational therapy to help him with his eating and some socializing and other motor skills that he seems a bit behind on.
She also did mention to us about looking into seeing if Ethan is autistic. We are trying to get in for this test, but they are scheduled so far back we don't go in until November. So we just have to wait.

I have been feeling  a bit emotional about all of it. I thought I was getting used to the idea, 3 therapy sessions every week, I can handle it. And I'm gonna do whatever I need to help Ethan, it's just so hard when they start throwing more stuff at me. And I'll be fine once it's all set up.
I just feel angry, sad, so emotional and just pissed off about everything that has happened to Ethan. And I don't know who to be pissed at? Myself? God? The medical community? Or who knows what? I just wish that he didn't have to go through all of this.

Well enough of my rant. I will keep you updated on how things go in the next week. Hoping for some progress soon! :)

Oh and thanks for listening, to whomever actually reads this? :)
