I have a four year old daughter and waiting for a formal diagnosis after years of assessments and being told numerous things. They are looking at a diagnosis' of autism now. I would really like some advice from other mothers out there.

Hi Kait, I am a mother of four and the 2nd is a four-year-old daughter. We have also been to numerous doctors and the only diagnosis we have found is "anything BUT autism". Does it seem to be mild or severe? I have a cousin with mild autism and I think that he will grow up to be nearly average and be able to work, have a family, and everything else we all hope are children can grow up to be. My daughter is completely non-verbal and seemingly very mentally impaired, she is a daily challenge and sometimes I feel like having a diagnosis would help because at least I could find other mothers with the same diagnosis and we could give each other support. It seems that as of late there has been lots of good support for children with autism.
