Doing well...

...so far so good on the school front! Timmy is very proud of himself that he has not been sent to the principals office. I'm more proud that his teacher said he really hasn't been any trouble at all! He is so stinking smart and loving school. The only issue we've really had is that he gets very upset if we (tom and I) mess up and he doesn't have the stuff he needs for school when he needs it. For instance one day his backpack was in Tom's van and Tom was at work. Another time I didn't see why they'd sent a paper home to be signed and he was very upset when other kids returned theirs and he didn't have his.
We finally scheduled a meeting with Principal and his teacher (Oct 14th) but decided we'd not cal it an official 504 meeting just yet since he seems to be doing so well.
At home...a slightly different story. His meds wear off right at the end of the school day so we get the brunt of the fun shall we say. But I have to call the Dr tomorrow for a new months meds anyway and will talk about having a short acting script for when its necessary. Probably won't use it everyday but when we have stuff to do in the evening it would be nice to be able to have.

Week 3

This is Timmy's third week of school. So far we've been told only good things from his teacher!

The mornings are struggle and every day getting him to take his medication because more and more difficult. For the first few days of the higher dose (10mg) he seemed to be doing really well from about 8:30-3/3:30. But now on the days he's home all day I don't see much diffrence. ut the Dr asked me to wait at least another week and let him "settle into this dosage" before we make any decisions.

FYI

While I don't tend to share fincial info to often I felt that since I have talked about the very thorough evaluation that was done, maybe I should be forthright in including the cost of it.
I am actually not sure what the full amount billed was yet but know that our portion is just barely shy of $1400.
