The new one is the former, she just is very bubbly and natural. The other one was very nice and Colin loved her but she just seemed a little lacking in that department. Also, since she is just an assistant I just didn't feel good about her ability to identify if it does turn out to be more than just a normal 'delay'. I still think it may be apraxia but the thing is when she relayed that fear to the SLP in charge the SLP came back to me and said that the woman working with us told her I had a fear it was something in the Autism spectrum. Now I don't know where the wire got crossed but my first thought was if she doesn't know the difference.... you know? <br />I don't think the new one is an SLP either but she is much more informed than the other one. She has also worked with my friends daughter and nephew so I know she has proven results. <br /><br />BTW I am sure Raf is fine, I know a lot of times they may lose words when they are learning new ones but I totally recommend calling early intervention. Worst case they will call you crazy for ever worrying! ;0)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06244325717690473346noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6055555806074922061.post-25989236803150465032011-07-02T18:19:14.139-07:002011-07-02T18:19:14.139-07:00HI CL! Love your blog... We are going to call Earl...HI CL! Love your blog... We are going to call Early Intervention next week. Raf has great receptive language but his expressive language is still really lagging. In fact he's stopped saying a few things - though I am not overly worried it would be good to get someone's opinion. <br /><br />WHat's different about this new speech therapist?Alexhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00794619386871840107noreply@blogger.com
