My son was diagnosed as HF, and the neurologist did mention she felt he was better categorized as such and that insurances shouldn't have a problem with that, like they do with Aspergers at this time. Still HF and Aspergers are very akin, twins. <br /><br />Best wishes with your final meeting,<br />DeniseHome School Mom: Denisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16291593100502544244noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20450510.post-57720803109598782982012-01-28T11:26:28.277-05:002012-01-28T11:26:28.277-05:00Oh that is scary!

To have a child who so clearly needs help and not be able to get it would be heart breaking.<br /><br />My son is having his final meeting for diagnosis on Monday and there has been already a lot of discussion between HFA and Aspergers. What happens in the future to the kids who already have that label if they eliminate it?<br /><br />Scary times for sure.Heidihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07043862331439827080noreply@blogger.com
