Helplessmum, look at the positive things:

1. He can play songs after listening to them once.
2. He is going to graduate soon.
3. He can draw very well, and could express himself through his drawings (did you see the one that he drew on 'Mother' with some descriptions?)
4. He has a supportive mother who has been supporting him for the past 20 years. She said she will never give up.
5. The courage of his mother to accept media interviews and bring this into the open with the hope that more people are aware of the condition.

If you have a chance to go Pathlight, take a look at the walls that are full of all sorts of drawings and articulations by their students. I am always very touched whenever I see these exhibits by how they express themselves in alternative ways.

Poly clinic: 1) refer CDC PD - CDC ST/OT/Eipic

2) refer general PD for other ailments - rehab ST/OT

Thanks for information. I have gone past the polyclinic stage, and my daugher has no other medical conditions.

The immediate need now is to clear her IQ assessment for school placement options. The rest will take it one step at a time and see how.

Immeemee,

Im just wondering, How come you've to go through the polyclinic route again? Do you not have an open case with kkh?

I watched the ch8 programme too. Was also wondering why his son displayed very distinctive body gesture when photos of a younger him doesn’t seem to have. But you can’t see the full picture from photos so for all u know, he was like dat since young?


I think it depends on individual cos the students I saw from Pathlight do not hv such issues, they look no different from any NT kid.

[helplessmum3]

Thanks double E,


After watch the show I cant sleep worried those gesture will appear later stage of my son life… Then my hub meltdown then go into depress mood …

May I know how to meet path light kids n talk to them?
If they so neat NT KIDS why they still study at pathligh?t

Two weeks ago, there’s also another caregiver story under this same documentary program. The boy is Branda’s son. She’s the author of the book ‘Come into my world’.


I live pretty near Pathlight. As my girl is presently at ARC, hence I go there once-twice per week. I do notice a a few kids from Pathlight displaying some quirky behaviors, but majority of them do not display such behaviors. Most of them could speak good English when I heard them converse with one another.

They needed more attn and hence go to pathlight. U need to meet min IQ score before u can enrol. They study the same things as mainstream and even take psle.

[helplessmum3]

So pathlight is higher standard then mainstream ?
