My son is in a school that specializes in ADHD, Dyslexia, CAPD and other learning differences... the progress he has made is amazing.<BR/><BR/>Good luck with your search for Nico's fit... he is so gorgeous!!<BR/><BR/>SarahSarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05748280883860444530noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18609784.post-70296404290942944112007-07-01T17:14:00.000-05:002007-07-01T17:14:00.000-05:00That is great to hear what Nico's scores are!!!

You ...Lori-email me. andreaeatherton@hotmail.com. You might remember that I am an audiologist. I wouldn't recommend a hearing aid for N. based on what you know now, especially if he doesn't have a true hearing loss, but once you meet with the specialist again and have more details, there might be some suggestions that are similar to the ones we give children who have something called Central Auditory Processing Disorder (CAPD). They have problems with background noise, so we suggest classroom strategies, seating placement, and ear plugs (not hearing aids) to help cut down on some of the distractions.Andreahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03789004679231213602noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18609784.post-62518531602879770162007-06-29T12:16:00.000-05:002007-06-29T12:16:00.000-05:00Lori...

I just told my husband about Nico's testing and results.... along with that he can't drowned out the background noises of life (if I interpreted it correctly.)<BR/><BR/>Jack's suggestion is that in a classroom setting having him wear a hearing aid that is designed to drowned out the background noises so that he can focus on the teacher and his studies.<BR/><BR/>I realize that we are no experts and don't know all the details of the testing and diagnosis...just our 2 centsJanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12859852466403739019noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18609784.post-45460404287537838992007-06-29T11:45:00.000-05:002007-06-29T11:45:00.000-05:00Peggy was oh so correct in her encouragement.

He had been diagnosed with ADHD for years and finally at about the age of 12 was diagnosed with Asperger's. He too is VERY intelligent. Just can't deal with social situations and sensory stuff/personal space is a problem.Alleenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00158345286546165294noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18609784.post-3021712701238319362007-06-28T19:27:00.000-05:002007-06-28T19:27:00.000-05:00Well, that is good news!

Teacher nearly held her back back she was so disruptive and a "challenge" My mom never put her on meds, but did get her in a "gifted and talented" program. It helped her focus, and she's done well ever since. I'll be anxious to hear how the next visit goes!Andreahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03789004679231213602noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18609784.post-4130904258770194902007-06-28T19:16:00.000-05:002007-06-28T19:16:00.000-05:00What amazing scores Nico had!!
