Extractions: Hi my name is Lyn Leedham and I live in Tasmania. I am married to Brian and we have Nicholas who is 16 and in his first year of college and is a typical teenager, then we had Michael who was still born and if he was alive he would be 11 years. Then we have Mitchell who has turned 9 of June this year. Mitchell was a hard baby and I knew that something was not right with this child as beautiful as he is, I just knew. I was for ever at the doctor's and as usual nothing wrong, or he might have a virus. This went on for 41/2 years until a new doctor came to our clinic. It just all went into place. He suggested that we see a paediatrician and that Mitchell could have a congenital abnormality. Gee, was we scared. After the paediatrician's visit, he suggested that we see a geneticist and on the 17 th November Mitchell was diagnosed with a very rare disorder called Floating Harbor Syndrome. Our lives would never be the same, but we went on living until Mitchells prep teacher asked if a child can have 2 syndromes. I asked what she meant and she thought that Mitchell might have Asperger's and it would be a good idea to have him assessed for it. I left the classroom to go and see the principal and well he suggested the same thing, so I got on the phone and so our journey began. I rang the Guidance officer and gee, what a shock. She said that she couldnt assess him and with her own admission she knew nothing about Autism. She suggested this other person which I contacted and she performed a CARS on Mitchell and he scored 34 but she wouldnt give him a proper diagnosis because he had Floating Harbor Syndrome.
