Uncertainty

Today just hasn't been my day... well, not completely anyway. I got approximately 45 minutes of sleep before I had to get the kids up for school. When I'm over tired, I can be highly emotion and irritable. I had a meeting with our therapist to discuss the kids' progress. Allyson's was good and Dominic's, not so much. There was still a lot of work to be done. She informed me that she and the psychiatrist had talked extensively about Dominic and that they were concerned. Fast forward to appointment with the psychiatrist later this afternoon - I find out that the therapist has been observing behaviors that are symptoms of autism and that they want to have him evaluated by a neurologist, 2 and 1/2 hours away from where we live. Good times. They want me to take him to the Dan Marino Children's Center  in Weston (part of Miami Children's Hospital)  for the evaluation. Lucky for me, I find out that my friend's mother works in the exact place we need to contact. Swapped some information with her and can we say "appointment coming soon"?
