I don't complain very often, but after 5 months of waiting my dd was still not getting any speech (or OT or PT) therapy. I think that the neurodevelopmental program that we started a few months back is going to make a big difference with this, but I don't like to leave any stones unturned.........so I became that proverbial squeaky wheel (I was polite about it though!). It worked! K will be starting speech right away with the speech therapist of my choosing. It will mean a couple of hours of driving to get an evaluation & program set up for the local person to follow, but to my knowledge, she is the best speech therapist within more than a days drive.........maybe a few days drive! K will also be getting OT & PT through the same organization. I am so excited!
I do have to add that the local person in charge of K's IEP was NOT to blame for the lapse in services. I respect her & appreciate her so much for all she has done for our school, community & children.
