Fax a copy of the eval to school. From our experience Private therapies our better than the school therapies. Our son struggles with all academics except math. If the dysfunction is mild you may not get therapies.
Hello! Everyone!
My son has a diagnosis of Sensory Integ. Dysfunction, but he is not on the autistic spectrum.
I had him evaluated at my expense. We have done Tomatis, diet changes (no casien and enzymes for gluten), Noni juice vitamins.
He has come so very far in just 10 months since his dx. To sum it up on a scale of 1 to 10, he went from a 0 to an 8.
Our private OT people have now recommended Interactive Metronome to help him with his remaining problem. He is still struggling with creative writing in school. Last year he would "shut down" with ANY writing projects, but this year after all the changes he is doing most writing assignments.
Anyway, I am out of $, and want the school to help now. Does anyone know how I can get them to pay or provide OT???
Our private OT evaluation supports it. We had him evaluated by the school district (absolute joke) so we paid for another one (private). We did Tomatis, and now the repeat eval shows extreme improvement except in praxis.
Thank you!
