    Parents rejecting their special child

    I still don't know why didn't the gynaes detect the abnormalities till the 22nd week, or why KKH couldn't tell me what was wrong, until I visited a private hosp gynae. No point pondering over them anymore either I suppose. I'm glad you've decided to try again. My aunt (many years ago) had the...

    Parents rejecting their special child

    My heart goes out to u. I've been in your shoes, just 5 months ago. I've nv stopped hurting, not even for a day. Do you have any other children? As for me, I don't. People keep saying it's possible to have another, etc. Although we're looking for gynaes and all, we're both terrified. At times...

    Need to vent: How others look at your special needs child

    I know a boy who attended a "resource schools with a special needs support officer who will help teachers manage all the special needs cases." He eventually left the school, because as hardworking and dedicated the support officer might be. There was only 1 person in his school, who was...

    Need to vent: How others look at your special needs child

    We need to think of ways to create greater awareness. While some are just plain mean and rude, there is a greater number of people of the general public who are simply ignorant to special needs children and their characteristics, and thus label these children as "naughty", "lazy", etc...

    Need to vent: How others look at your special needs child

    I have a 9 year old autistic nephew. He used to be in a stroller till about 3-4 years old, and he's very big-built, thus looking "unusual" in a stroller. Everytime we brought him out, would get countless stares too. While it annoys us, we try to ignore them. Now that he's bigger and able to...

    Parents rejecting their special child

    Hi jasobias: Thank you for sharing your experience. While 'happy' is not the right word, it feels a little heartening to know that there are other moms who have been through what I did. I surfed the i-net endlessly trying to find someone to relate my feelings to, and found no1. While my...

    Parents rejecting their special child

    Angelmum: Yes, I feel that too, the gynaes (both private & govt subsidized) were always in a rush. They kept brushing aside every concern of mine. I was hugely disappointed, especially since the pvt gynae came highly recommended. Plus, the private ones kept emphasizing that they are EXPENSIVE...

    Hi Angelmum, so sorry to hear you went thru the same thing. I know how hard it is. Hope you have begun to heal and move on. Yes, I discovered the abnormalities at about 5.5mths, when I went for the detailed scan. Went to 3 or 4 different gynaes for opinions.. all said the same thing, that he...

    Parents rejecting their special child

    That is very very saddening to hear. My son was diagnosed with multiple genetic disorders too when I was mid-way through my pregnancy. Unfortunately, he never survived. Doctors foresaw that he would have the same plight as that little boy if he were born. Mine passed away when I was in my third...
