So we have a letter from the SALT confirming that they have the referral paperwork ( at last) and he is now on the waiting list.
However its been many many weeks since the Educational Psychologist paperwork headed off and we have heard nothing.
I am not unrealistic, and I certainly don't expect an appointment until Aidan is about 30 or so. However I did expect an acknowledgement that he is on a waiting list somewhere. So I will have to head back off to the school soon to find out what is going on, and who to chase to find out if the paperwork has been received.
I am worried that the Ed Psych may not help as much as I hope, one of the specialists did comment that this is just likely to bring us another piece of paper and no practical help, but I am ever hopeful and optimistic.
I love the NHS and our educational system, and would defend how lucky we are to the hills and back. However I am so fed up of waiting and more times than not being forgotten. I can't think of a single health or educational support issue within the whole family that at some stage has not lost a referral or an appointment. Arggghhhh I am turning into a real cynical grumpy old cow.
To end on a positive note thank you NHS, DRT and education for all those good things you have given us.
