Hi, I was under the impression that Disney would not even glance at a letter from a doctor as far as getting a DAS. So, when we went to my son's last dr appt I turned him down when he suggested to write a note about his struggles. Long and short the doctor said the DAS would be a great idea for us. And we even went over stress reducers and different tactics for us to employ and cool down areas for my kids to have a fun vacation.
My worry is still a unsympathetic or not understanding CM. Or worse I dont explain my sons struggles and difficulties well enough to enable them to understand our need for this service then I will feel I let them down if I do not get them one and he ends up having a rough time and miserable from anxiety and meltdowns. I have ,since the dr appt, heard a few parent friends tell me they brought dr notes and they did look at them. Please advise!! I wanna be the most prepared to be the proper voice and advocate for my son, as I always try to be. I wish I could just present a letter from dr or state his diagnosis, I dislike listing his struggles as the only means to get him the assistance he needs to make him comfortable. I may get all emotional listing how he struggles and his reactions to similar situations. Dont wanna be a blubbering mess in Disney. Seeing how other ppl can "suprise" their kids about a Disney vacation even make me emotional, that would be SO fun to do, but not good for my kiddos. They need to be in the loop with lots of structure. Thanks for any suggestions! Sorry if this Q is all over the place, just looking for suggestions and guidance maybe even reassurance. THANKS!!
