Right now we are looking to start medication so I'll be looking for guidance on how best to manage that, home and at school, and potential side effects. I'm concerned about the impact on sleep and long term on her growth, she's already a skinny mini.

In future we will be thinking about how we can help in practical ways to guide and support her education, other therapies or extra curricular activities. Then there is secondary school looming in a few years and deciding on the best setting.

Schooling and managing it, being able to reach his potential because that's what we want for him and to be happy with himself.
