		<description><![CDATA[After our first visit to our new Autism Center (see What to Expect from an Autism Center Evaluation Part I), we returned a month later to regroup with the psychologist and a developmental pediatrician (OD).  The OD gave our son a neurological evaluation and observed his language, social skills and behaviors.
After the neurological evaluation, a office nurse played with our son in another room while the psychologist and the OD  reviewed all of the test results to date and collaborated with us on recommended next steps. As it turned out, my son&#8217;s original PDD-NOS diagnosis was updated to high functioning autism with an attention deficit disorder.  The topics we covered in <a href="http://autismisnottheboss.com/2009/08/what-to-expect-from-an-autism-center-evaluation-part-ii/"> Continue reading...</a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I would gladly donate every penny of the gas money I&#8217;ve spent driving my son from one diagnostic center to another if I could  find a single, one-stop shop for autism screening!  My dream is to have all  of the tests and questionnaires completed in a single trip &#8211; preferably riding up an escalator or a moving sidewalk.  Can you imagine it? I could hold my son&#8217;s hand while we shared  ice cream cones or s&#8217;mores (it&#8217;s a dream, remember?).  As we  passed each diagnostic station&#8211; neurology, speech/language, sleep, nutrition, gastroenterology, ENT, fine motor, gross motor, etc &#8211;different specialists would take x-rays by digital camera and saliva samples by offering a cherry lollipop.  <a href="http://autismisnottheboss.com/2009/07/what-to-expect-from-an-autism-center-evaluation-part-i/"> Continue reading...</a>]]></description>
