Take a deep breath...At 3 y.o. my son was essentially non-verbal. A

developmental diagnosed him with severe oral/verbal apraxia, sensory

integeration disorder & hyptonia..She recommended I start him on Pro-EFA's

and Pro-EPA's ..I've since added Carnaware & High Gamma Vitamin

E..(natural). He received Speech at our local school (Language Delay

program) 3x a week and privately we took him to SLP 2x a week (1/2 hr

sessions). Today, @ 5 y.o. he speaks in sentences..he is 80% intelligible

when he slows himself down. He cannot speak in fluent dialogue..but we are

working on that. He got reevaluated this month and she said that his

Apraxia has now turned to Dyspraxia. ( I thought they were the same thing

but she says that Apraxia essentially means one is without speech). He has

other fine motor issues that fit Dyspraxia better.

Always, always keep a positive attitude. Don't overly push him to speak..

Make a big deal whenever he says anything correctly. My son has one thing

that is extremely important: a HIGH SELF ESTEEM. He has never shown

feelings of inadequacy to date.

God Bless!
