Intelligence: Average
Dx: Mood disorder-NOS, PDD-NOS, and ADHD.
"He's behavior is consistent with a Asperger's Disorder but given his communication delay he does not meet the full criteria for Asperger's diagnosis therefore a diagnosis of Pervasive Developmental Disorder, nos"

They would have him do preferred seating in an 1:8 class if he was in public school. They also advised that he be in sports, boy scouts and other community structured social interaction.

It said a whole bunch of other stuff but that's the summarized version.

Hello

I'm a speech-language pathologist. I don't know if you need any advice about this Dx or not, but if you do I would be happy to help.

Molly,
He no longer has speech delays. He didn't talk until about 3.5 year & he started reading at the same time. It was like he needed to understand all aspects of language before attempting it. Once he started talking he had a larger vocabulary then me and read almost as well. Now he talks before his eyes open for the day and in his sleep. He's more than made up for the earlier years.
