Anger and (W)rest

My B23 company owner (SLP) came over today for almost two hours- told me he wanted an honest and open and trusting relationship and that I could ask him anything. Uh-huh. His point: I had asked for the developmental psychologist to check in with us quarterly as a part of Grant's IFSP and he couldn't afford it. So why did the teacher agree to put it on the plan so quickly? And why all the secrecy about coming over and talking about trust and openness? We haven't even started therapy yet! Trust comes with experience! But even with his circumventing around, I think our ideas of what therapy should look like for Grant are fairly similar. He gave a copy of "Early Start Denver Model for Young Children with Autism". I read the first chapter tonight; hard to read about how early brain connections/ development (or lack thereof) keep exacerbating as a baby finds objects more attention-getting than people. But we still have enough time with Grant to sway his attention and encourage him to be turned into emotional responses. As the SLP left today Grant pointed out the window and said, "it's a truck!" and even used joint eye gaze. He should make good progress quickly. The other piece of literature was about diet modifications, which I'm going back and forth about. We'll see I guess. Lots of changes, but didn't I always function better with a project anyway?
