[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 740355, member: 18958"] B's Mom. In Canada are there advocates? Here in the United States I went to an organization called "Disability Rights." They gave us a free attorney who went to IEP's with us. It helped my son get non-public school (and a free taxi to take him 45 minutes each way.) Might there not be similar advocacy groups to support you in this process of forcing the government health system to diagnose your son so that he can receive targeted treatment. As it is they seem to be throwing things at him, without a real sense of what it is. They describe what they see, just like the blind men with the elephant. You know all of this. I don't need to tell you. It certainly is frustrating. Here in the United States the law schools have clinics to give their students practice in various aspects of law that deal with human problems such as disability rights, or say, immigration. They are supervised and they are free. Might there be such clinics in Ontario? So that you can get some sustained legal help. What did the attorney say at your husband's work? Anyway. We are with you here. [/QUOTE]
