    Talking Statement....

    Alfie was initially refused a statutory assessment this year and we appealed. Took weeks to organise the paperwork.

    Today we have had a letter to say we have been successful in our appeal and his assessment will start immediately.

    All we do is fight for him, to get what he needs. Some days I have a real chip on my shoulder about it. And some days I don't think people with 'joe-normal-average' children realise how bloody lucky they are!

    Anyway.......... It'll not be done in time for our decision on his next school, but at least we are moving in the right direction!!!!

    I am not sure what Alfie's troubles are but it doesn't matter. Any victory you can scrape out is huge in my books.

    Keep fighting and keep your "chip" too while you are at it. It forms there for a reason :-)

    Well done you!!!! Your appeal must have been something really outstanding to have got the original decision overturned.

    Well done on being successful.
    They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old.
    Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
    At the going down of the sun and in the morning
    We will remember them.
