Evaluation...


I called the early steps program yesterday. For some reason you don’t have to jump through as many hoops and you get on a different waiting list if you live in our county (maybe because we have no medical centers/hospitals and very few doctors in our area???) Long story short the person I spoke to said someone would call me to set up an evaluation for Jakob and two hours later someone called me! The lady is coming today at 3:00 to do the evaluation. I am once again very nervous, even though I know what the outcome will be. It is a very hard thing to have someone critiquing your child. No parent wants to think there’s something wrong with their baby and you definitely don’t want someone else telling you your child needs help, (even though I know he does) it’s a hard thing to deal with. I worry that Jakob won’t be cooperative and then they’ll think he has something else wrong with him. I am thankful though that everything happened so fast. Hopefully we will be able to start therapy soon too. Pray for us! <3

I am glad it is all behind now and maybe you will get some help in getting him talking, I know in my heart everything will be fine and soon very soon we will be telling him to be quiet :-D. I know its hard to hear something is wrong but we can't get help if we don't take the first step. I pray for GOD to give you comfort and strength. love you very much. ♥ Momma, and Gamma ♥♥♥♥ Jakob
