so frustrated with school eval for eli's sensory issues.
i finally got a call today to schedule eli's eval for services from the school district. here's a run down of what sensory things we are expeirencing right now:
awful toe walking- falling all day!
scratching skin til it bleeds
sensory seeking when overwhelmed- mostly scratching self, making carpet snow angels for hours
gagging when eating
eating non food items- ugh, he just yesterday ate foam number squares- the ones you make into a hopscotch- he ate off all the tabbies.
excessive meltdowns- LOTS Of screaming and throwing himself down
two weeks ago i tried to take him to little gym, for 20 minutes he made carpet snow angels, then the owner said maybe the music was too loud for him, turned it off, and he jumped up and went to participate. lol. really?
BUT....he knows all his letters- capitals and lowercase, letter sounds, can sound out words, write his name, count to 20, recognize numbers to 10, knows his shapes, and colors, and is super verbal....at THREE.
great....so they said, without even seeing him, that he will most likely not qualify bc his issues do not effect him academically. grrrr. so...they will see him next week so they have a record of evaluating him, but it is most likely another dead end for my son. i guess back to the doctor to push for something else. what the heck? this is crazy! at least in our old state he got pt through our insurance. here, we get nothing. it is just so discouraging.
