I was just wondering how you have been feeling since your first post about your little boy's diagnosis.
Remember there is plenty of support on this community and we at Navigate are here to provide any emotional or practical support if you felt it would be suitable.

Your daughter sounds like a lovely little girl and seems to be doing well at the moment. I can understand your concerns regarding her CP diagnosis, it's a worrying time but this community is here to offer you advise and support.
As I mentioned in one of the previous posts, I am a Parent Adviser for the Scope Navigate service. Navigate provide a six week programme of online and telephone support to parents who have a child going through diagnosis or have a child who has recently been diagnosed with a disability. The aim is to provide parents with emotional and practical support that will help them build resilience as they start on their journey as a parent of a child with a disability or impairment.
