hi everyone

I wanted to say thanks to everyone who commented on my first post here, enquiring about how to go about getting a diagnosis fro my son ! Unfortunatly - it wont let me add a comment to the original thread, so as I was going to introduce myself here, and start participating LOTS more in the conversations ( i've been lurking about and reading them for a few months now !) I'll bundle a big THANK YOU for taking notice of me !

I see a lot of posts from worried parents - and lots of questions from them, I just wanted to leave a thank you for your time answering me, it really helped me !

I DID ended up going private ( after spending ages on NHS waiting list), and had to travel ( from Scotland ) down to England for it!

So I'm MrsMcThingy, from the UK with 3 wonderful kids, eldest, boy , 12 has High Functioning Autism, (and it looks like I do too !)

Keen to speak to any other UK people who can shed some light on stuff ! And any other parents worldwide who just 'understand' ! :)
