How did all start?
My son was born with it.
Do you already have a diagnosis? How long did it take you to get it?
He was 2yrs old when we found out.
For what medical specialties have you been treated? What has been the most useful specialty for your?
We’ve been to many doctors and therapists. Nothing seems to help with behavior.
What has been the most useful thing for you so far?
Nothing really.
What have been your biggest difficulties?
Behavior issues are his biggest issues.
How has your social and family environment reacted? Have your social or family relationships changed?
Most friends and family don’t understand.
What things have you stopped doing?
Visiting places and people.
What do you think about the future?
I’m just not sure how things will turn out for him but we keep trying.
What would you like to do if you didn’t have your condition?
I can’t think about how life would be if he didn’t have this condition. I have to live with what is fact and he has it, it will never go away.
