He doesn’t need to “get better” from Sensory Processing Disorder.
There are two things not to say to a parent of a child with sensory processing disorder or any other invisible issue that doesn’t manifest in a way that can be seen “physically”… “He looks fine, though” & “so when will he get better?” Both have been said to me recently. Both were well meant […]
READ MORE→I run on iron. What keeps this mum going strong?
*I was very kindly sent some Spatone Liquid Iron to try* Vitamins and iron? Something you think about or put to the back of your mind?
