Emmett John is the only one of our kids without an official diagnosis. After discussing things with everyone involved we are having issues trying to get a straight answer. The development pediatrician says right now she is leaning towards PDD. However, she has only seen him once.  The help me grow team is working in the areas of speech and say he is 9 to 12 monthes behind developmentally. They are encouraged by some of the progress he has made but we have a long road ahead.

We aren’t excited about lables for the sake of lables. We do, however, want answers. A diagnosis will give us a direction in which to go in. Right now we are kind of in limbo waiting to figure out what is going on.
