Hi ,

My daughter, andra (3) was in a normal day care until she was diagnosed at

one year old.  About three monhts later we removed her because the center she

was in didn't have people dedicated to her to learn how to " play " with her. 

andra is probably moderately retarted, has 8-15 myoclonic seizures per day. 

At 3 years old she still doesn't walk, talk or feed herself.  So, we hired a

nanny who comes to our house.  Luckily, I knew somebody interested in the

position.  She was the sister to one of my best friends growing up and I knew

her family better than I knew my own family.  If it were not for this nanny, I

wouldn't (or my husband) wouldn't be working.  It's a hard decision and I think

you need to follow your gutt.  What feels right for you and your family is

probably right.

Subject: Just wondering

Since my son has been diagnosed with BPP I had to quit my job and focus on

getting him the medical attention that he needs. Its been 2 yrs. Now that the

apointments have " some-what " slowed down, I was thinking about finishing school

and going back to work. I have 2 months left of school to become a medical

assistant. I was wondering if anyone in this group has their child in a daycare

and how they feel about it. I'm kina skeptical of putting him in daycare just

because he requires special needs and attention. I'm so scared that something

would happen and he can't talk (does A LOT of sign) he wouldn't be able to tell

his caretaker what is wrong. I have found daycares who except children with

special kids but it still doesn't sit right with me. I think its because I'm so

used to him being with me all this time. I would appreciate any feedback from

all of you. Thanks.

about 2 weeks. I have thought of you all the way through your pregnancy, and

will continue to do so until I hear that your new baby is well.
