    Shammy ADHD is a MEDICAL dx. if your doc provided you a diagnosis on paper or does...they MUST accept it! At least for the 504. Don't let it go, where ever you end up landing school wise okay?

    I won't. Not to worry.  It is frustrating how this dx has been treated as an excuse rather than a 'real' health issue.  His brain does not work quite right, it's a fact.  Gluten and red dye make his behavior MUCH worse.  they wanted me to work with them on making his behavior better. I am holding up my end of the 'bargain' they need to take their end seriously. 

    I had a conference with his teacher yesterday about the seriousness of his food issues. I gave her a letter from his doctor which specified exactly which foods he is intolerant to, so hopefully it will be at the front of her mind whenever someone else brings in a food he can't have.

    We are still strongly considering home/charter schooling him and his sister, not only for his adhd but also for military- moving... DD would start kindergarten Aug '11 and have to move that december.
