Hello @Brookefamily

Thanks for reaching out to us. I always appreciate how much courage it must take to reach out.

Sorry to hear that things have been really tough for you and your son. It must be really worrying for you.

Unfortunately, this is not my area of expertise but it seems the wonderful @janer1967 and @Teddybear12 have already signposted you to some potential support.

Have you tried the navigate support for families yet? If so, how have you found it?

Is there anything else we can do to support you?

We are here for you and we care about you

Dear Brooke family, how on earth did you get a diagnosis so quickly, after 4 months! Bless you all. Sending love & courage. xxxps  have you experienced screaming from baby? Unable to placate, for long periods of time?  Thankyou.

Hes been having physio since he was 3 months but noticed from his movement that it didn't quite fit the Erb's bill so we had ultrasounds xx
