By proceeding, I agree that I understand the following disclosures:
I. How We Work in Washington. Based on your preferences, we provide you with information about one or more of our contracted senior living providers ("Participating Communities") and provide your Senior Living Care Information to Participating Communities. The Participating Communities may contact you directly regarding their services. APFM does not endorse or recommend any provider. It is your sole responsibility to select the appropriate care for yourself or your loved one. We work with both you and the Participating Communities in your search. We do not permit our Advisors to have an ownership interest in Participating Communities.
II. How We Are Paid. We do not charge you any fee – we are paid by the Participating Communities. Some Participating Communities pay us a percentage of the first month's standard rate for the rent and care services you select. We invoice these fees after the senior moves in.
III. When We Tour. APFM tours certain Participating Communities in Washington (typically more in metropolitan areas than in rural areas.) During the 12 month period prior to December 31, 2017, we toured 86.2% of Participating Communities with capacity for 20 or more residents.
IV. No Obligation or Commitment. You have no obligation to use or to continue to use our services. Because you pay no fee to us, you will never need to ask for a refund.
V. Complaints. Please contact our Family Feedback Line at (866) 584-7340 or
[email protected] to report any complaint. Consumers have many avenues to address a dispute with any referral service company, including the right to file a complaint with the Attorney General's office at: Consumer Protection Division, 800 5th Avenue, Ste. 2000, Seattle, 98104 or 800-551-4636.

This type of neuropsych exam is routinely used to diagnose attentional difficulties, ASD and dementias. The pattern of neuro-cognitive deficits in each of these disorders, as well as the way in which the client does the tasks, is informative in trained hands.
I say go for it.
I was always curious as to what it was like. Please post if your LO has it. It's my understanding that it provides a good idea of where the deficits are and what type of damage there is at the time of testing.
Here is a good description.
Is this his way of being able to say latter on "no, it's not an accurate representation of my skills because I wasn't trying"?
I think that you should share what your husband is telling you with the referring doctor.
These tests are not like that. It's kind of like we are pretending that you are a helium balloon; we want to see just how far you float up until you hit YOUR ceiling. And the only way we can tell that is if you get SOME answers wrong; EVERY SINGLE PERSON who has ever taken this test gets SOME answers wrong. It's built in to the design of the test, so try not to worry if you don't know the answer!
Research is so important. New things are discovered all the time but it takes tremendous effort and an enormous amount of money. I feel donations to a foundation instead of flowers at a funeral is very meaningful.
I would rather know something early on if something is wrong. Early detection helps us to emotionally prepare.
When I was pregnant with my daughter my numbers were high in the category for Down’s.
Waiting for test results is truly a nerve wracking experience. I had an amniocentesis and the baby did not have any abnormalities.
Therapy helped me during the process because I was asked if I wanted to choose abortion.
I utilized therapy to cope and process everything that would be involved in raising a child with special needs. Therapy can help us prepare for the unknown.
My friend that has a child with Down’s helped me a lot. So don’t hesitate to speak to a therapist if you need to.
