Seroquel and School
It's been over a month now since Cassidy started taking Seroquel. The difference in her is amazing. She sleeps through the night now EVERY night. I no longer go to bed wondering what kind of fight I am going to have on my hands.
Her fits have subsided greatly. They are not gone. She still has them now and then but it's becoming more rare and they don't last as long or seem as violent.
Her ability to communicate has improved. She can focus better which has made it easier for me to help teach her how to read and write.
After talking to Miss Kathy on the phone last month, I felt sick about sending her to Shenandoah. I felt they were just waiting for any excuse to kick her out. They told me, "this is the first time we have ever had to deal with something like this." Hold on to your hats Shenandoah because there will be more and they will probably be more difficult that Cassidy. However, I don't want her to be the "first time they have ever had to deal with something like this."
I have relocated to Anderson and will be sending her to Erskine Elementary. Even though it is a regular elementary school there are many other autistic children there. I have not talked to the staff of the school about her "special needs" yet but I don't think she will be received with so much dread as she was in Middletown.
