This is a thereupatic blog expressing the struggles and triumphs faced by both mother and son in their walk with Autism. I took the title from a book about an autistic child entitled "The Curious Incident of the Dog in Night Time". I hope by recapping my walk in this journey (basing on my experience with my son 'White Horse') I will be a source of light to others who feel the same. This blog is especially dedicated to my son.

School Hunting IIClick to hide.

I finally finished watching the Korean series My Name Is Kim Sam Soon. You can watch the Title song/video clip at youtube. I took the honour to review it to make sure it was the correct clip and not any other x-rated version (if any). This one is for you Laundryamah!

So next time don't ever tell me of any series.....I just realised I have this obsession for `romantic/comedy' stuff and I just loose control over it. Muhahahaha..... By the way husband was suggesting to me the other night whether he should have his hair cut like Hyun Bin. He asked for it, I just told him the truth that the hairstyle only suited people with slim features and definitely not him!

So typically glued to the TV for the past few days, WH was also neglected. It's not him taking off days, but ME....me.....I am the culprit!

We went on a kindergarten `shopping' this morning. The first one was at the old wing of our suburb. We went at the time when the kids were having their tea break, so it was very chaotic. Mm.....they have about 50 students. Again the first impression didn't seemed right - just too chaotic. I think we will skip that school.

Later we tried to visit another kindergarten around my neighbourhood surroundings. It was nearing lunch time and everyone was kind of grouchy and especially me! Never ever let me be hungry. Stuff me with food first to defuse me. Anyway, the guy came out and told us that nobody was able to attend to us and that we should come back after 3:30pm! Phhhhhhht...mind my language. If they can't spare just 5 minutes to tell me what they have, I won't send my son there either, period. Call it pride but I was definitely not in the good mood to `hang around'. So the hunt continues.......

Other than that WH has been asking for Dina for the past few days. I think he misses her since she didn't have any classes for the past 2 sessions. Hopefully he will behave properly tomorrow and not waste my money `yelling' in class for half an hour. Geesh...if you only know how much I pay for each of his therapy sessions you will flip and know why I feel so anxious about `Time and Money' issue. Sometimes honestly I do feel being rob in that sense having to cough up so much money for a so called `specialised programme'. It's like daylight robbery. It's the price we have to pay for having very few specialised teachers to teach people like WH. May the `force be with me' .

the school may not have people to spare to attend to you maybe b'cos they are all held up handling the kids.. so can't blame them ler..

I'm sure those private lessons cost a lot.

Zara,
I guess you are right. Again I wasn't in the good mood. If that's the reason, then my son is not suitable in the school anyway.....
If I told you the $$$ I pay every month, you will flip and thank God you don't need to spend that kind of money.
