Right - well the Gorski blog is interesting (evening) - comments awaiting moderation are mine (below) *Thought: Now one item was dentistry - my poor lad had a bad tooth too - the services in RBKC were not available and not helpful at the time they swiped my lad- seemed a bit like sabotage - very severe learning disabled kids also freak/run/bolt/panic/fit/and otherwise flip at the dentist (so do fkn I, so you can imagine if some poor sweet kid doesn't know what the hell some c*nt is doing in their mouth? See Angelman or Down's Syndrome kids for associated problems) for most SLD kids you need special dentistry - many of us mothers have found dentists to be fans of BDSM and Levayanism too - so it is all a worry -but you do have to check the motives behind such things.
'For the sake of justice, medicine and truth – all you have really said
is prove that genetic testing should always be done as a matter of
course when ASD is involved and that all inconclusive results be
considered and reviewed e.g ‘Angelmans could not be ruled out’ and also –
as in our case – blood was incompatible (according to a few old
records) and we should have been alerted the child would be born with
disability. HTH'
