Hope everything is ok with Maddy xx

Thanks hun. She's ok - seems much better today.
We've been looking into the fact that she may have dyspraxia because there are numerous things she really struggles with, one being writing. Preliminary tests are pointing to that, but got to wait for proper testing/assesments which takes weeks. Didn't mind this, and she was managing but this week they found out which classes they were going into next term and her teacher told the whole class they were all staying together as so clever - it then came out that Maddy was the only person in the class moving.
She came home on Monday night & broke her heart - asking us if she was being punished for being different. she told me she feels like she's rubbish & can't do anything. She cried solidly for 5 hrs and i just held her while trying not to cry too.
So i've been into school & they've explained what support they want to give her academically (apparently very brainy but just cant get it on paper presumably because of the dyspraxia) - but i wanted to know what they going to do to support her emotionally etc.
Anyway think i've sorted it & i came away feeling like they had listen to what i was saying and they promised to support her and show her how good a move to another class will be for her. So lets just hope they follow through.

Have to say 2 sleepless nights worrying about her has absolutely drained me. Felt hormonal, emotional anyway so this just made it worse.
But hay, hopefully sorted so hopefully will sleep tonight.

Its hard being a parent sometimes eh! You love them so much & yet the world is so stressful for them at times.

Have to ask - Hows Rosie? Did brill on her oral exam. x

What is it with Schools and they way children are made to feel? So wrong! Poor little Maddy xx I know exactly what you are going through and I'm here for you xx

What's going on with you then hun? You've been constantly poorly for months - have they run some blood tests?

Anyway, enjoy your girly day with Maddy!

I'm off to the doc with Rosie tomorrow - she's a little anxious but is up for it - finally facing the demons!
