It has been soooo long since i wrote here, blame it to the project...sigh! Well again, we will always find something to blame on, except ourself, rite?
anyway, just to share here that both me n en.faizal had our wake-up call last Thursday, yeah after almost 3years, we had the wake-up call last week during our appointment with Dr.Sofiah Ali, Paed Neurologist.
Micah has been diagnosed as autistic character, which Alhamdulillah not austisme. According to the Dr, the diff is that, autistic means that the kid has some austisme character and his case on social and speech.
Before this we thought that he is just a quite kid (like his father) and don't so much into socializing because pemalu (like his mother), until we went to see the Dr, it has been confirmed. Despite his vocabulary that always surprise us (he can say and recognize diff types of shapes, color, animal, body part, counting till 15 etc), he rarely speak and also construct a sentence. Usually its a word, or if it is a sentence its already like one phrase like "What's that", "Where r u". Plus he likes to mumbling.
The Dr. also mentioned that, the pattern or the way he is playing the toys is like a 2YO instead of 3YO which suppose to be more complex and technical. Which WE NEVER notice it...sigh again to the parents. In terms of picky eater, it is another symptom as well....double sigh.
We never notice all this signs and symptoms, again we thought he is just a non-talkative boy. So now, we have been given 6 weeks, to start on few steps in helping Micah to eliminate the autistic character.
1. Less cartoon, no iPad for him, if possible no TV at night
2. Spend more and more time with him with physical activity - speak and action
3. Flash cards at least 5 mins in a session
4. Send him to daily school
5. Speech therapist session
6. EEG procedure
7. Deep sea fish oil
Alhamdullilah, only after few days of doing item 1-3 (still finding the right school for him), he has started to show some positive progress. I also have started to jot down, every single thing he did, eat or anything happened esp on speech and social progress.
The Dr said, it was a brave move for us to admit and went to consult her at early stage. She gave us 2 years to train Micah to bring him back out from his "own world" (that's he likes to mumbling, because in his own world, thats the language they use). Do pray us for this journey kay?
Will try my best, to keep updating his progress here...a lot easier to track.
Wassalam :D

lama xbaca citer kak yati. btw previously kiter pn risau ihsan smpi terpk mcm2. dia agak slow dlm bab berckp. mmg byk ckp tp bahasa dia je. xtaula kalau kiter risau melampau. nk rule out anything pn still too early. bila citer kt org lain pn diorg kata ihsan kecik lg biasa la tu. now kiter dok perati n buat activity for him. hopefully im just unnecessarily being worried. maybe dia just jenis simpan n sumday tnjuk kebolehan dia, perhaps. anyway hope micah will progress fast. kak yati pn gambatte okay.
