Have we cracked it?

When I went to pick my son up after my work yesterday, my dad told me his friend had popped in and my son was totally fine.

My dad’s friend arrived when my dad and son were out a wee walk, so was in the living room when they got home. My dad’s friend knows about the diagnosis. He didn’t look at my son, just chatted to my dad and let my son go to him. He made no fuss of him at all, and it worked! My son wasn’t uncomfortable, it just took him a minute to get used to the new person.

Have we cracked it?????

Had my son known someone new was in the house, he wouldn’t have gone in. By making no fuss, it allowed him to take in what was going on.

This is our new plan. No preparation and no fuss. Let’s see how this works…….
