I just became a registered nurse, and my ten-year-old son is infant-like, has frequent meltdowns, and cannot stand without support. He is missing a piece of DNA (chromosome 9q22.2) but we are unsure if it made him disabled. He has a diagnosis of severely multiply impaired, paucity of white brain matter, partial agenesis of the corpus callosum, microcephaly, deformities of the ankle and foot, and Autism.

Rough transitions after school
The first three weeks of school consisted of Andy getting used to long days again. He loves school, but he was very tired when he got home, and would get to bed early. The next two weeks after, he would cry as soon as we got home from school, and would be hard to console. I tried to do everything, including giving him Tylenol, in case of a headache, toothache, leg pain, etc. He just seemed to be in a funk as soon as I started to walk him into the house for about the first two weeks of school starting. Andy seems to be better adjusted now.
