• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

In need of some prayers again. My stepchild has a autism evaluation later on this week. How much paperwork can I expect to do? What should I expect? Prayers for strength and positivity will gladly be appreciated.
We will likely be at the clinic all day tomorrow. Any tips and recommendations also appreciated. Keep us in your prayers and thoughts tomorrow. I’ve taken a day out from work.

Praying all will go smoothly. Best advice is to have all the medical records and doctor's notes. Doctors will write a summary health evaluation (one page) confirming your child is under their care, the diagnosis, prognosis and medications they are on. Most do it through the "my chart" on line but I have picked up hard copies signed as well. It helps when there is a mound of medical records and you put a doctor's summary signed note on top. That holds a lot of weight with the VA and they are difficult to deal with.

Thank you for the advice. I’ll also take a pen with me.

The people at the clinic should be happy to guide you through the process,step by step. No doubt they have done so with others many times. It seems you are just feeling so stressed out. They should understand that too.

I pray for insight and strength and peace for you and for all to go well.

That’s true. I’m sure if this is a medical clinic they have a social worker as well.

See if there is a Chapter/ Meeting of Mom's Against Autism in your area or online you can visit. A few years ago they were world wide and very very helpful to other moms (and dads, just it was mostly stay-at-home housewives) .....
