It wasn't until February that we got called back in for them to sit down and play with Cameron for an hour and watch him for themselves. So from my first request to getting the official diagnosis was 7 months.

I started making appointments in November though, knowing full well that I could cancel if it turned out that he wasn't Autistic. But I haven't had to cancel.

We still have yet to get him into any publicly funded programs though. We're still waiting.
