Eps. 4 Growing Differently

A few days later, Elsa was allowed to go home by a doctor. She came home with the tiny baby boy after undergoing a difficult birth process and a series of postpartum actions that made her also feel pain, because of getting enough stitches.

It is time for recovery at home. While at home, all the family members pamper him and the baby boy he named Nalendra Dirga Mahavir.

The name Dirga was chosen by Hadwan because his favorite football star was named, the famous striker of footballers in his hometown, the city of Emerald. Another reason he chose that name was because in the area where he lives now there was no child named it.

Dirga received a great deal of affection from his parents and from his grandmothers. Food, don't ask. He gets enough nutrition even tends to be excessive. Same when still in the stomach, outside also he likes to drink milk in large quantities, as well as eat high-flavored lovemaking food, and, so he grew up with a large weight when he was 6 months old.

The days changed and did not feel Dirga was growing bigger. He is entering the age of 1 year. His behavior is very active for the size of a toddler his age who usually will only be silent if it has been given a toy, which is different from Dirga.

He actively moves there and there without stopping, as if there is no fatigue. People around you who only see their behavior are tired. He never walked to get something, but ran. That was why his body now looked slimmer yet densely filled.

Lots of toys given to him by his father and mother. Various toys are also relatively expensive and good toys. But what did Dirga do to the toy ? All toys are only 3 days old at most in his hands. He will play his toys until they are broken, then he can stop.

Even though all the toys were damaged, her parents bought her new toys again. In addition, Elsa also bought him a brainy baby VCD containing basic learning materials for children in the form of materials to know the alphabet, counting, color and basic vocabulary of English. He rotates it all every day with the intention, someday the child will be smarter than his parents.

Strangeness begins to appear at the age of 1.5 years. Where at that age usually children his age has a lot of vocabulary and began to say two words. But Dirga only said one word, and even then rarely spoke.

Elsa felt strange. But he brushed it off. Each child has a different developmental pattern. Boys tend to be quieter and less talkative than girls.

Elsa began to worry when Dirga turned 2 years old. Because he is more active and the number of vocabulary is reduced and sometimes use gestures if asking for something by visiting something he wants.

“Sa... try your child this you take to a pediatrician is there and check if there are abnormalities ?” mother said when she saw Dirga dragging her hand to take the sword toy that was placed above.

Elsa, who was cleaning Dirga's toy, thought to consider the advice of her mother.

A few days later after he found a pediatrician, Dr. Niken. He intended to take Dirga there after work.

In the afternoon after registering by phone and getting a queue number, he left for the hospital with Dirga. During the wait, Dirga could not keep quiet. He walked to see what was in the hospital because his curiosity was so great.

After a long wait, Dirga's name was finally called. Elsa's coming in with Dirga.

“So what did Mother complain about her son ?” doctor Niken observed Dirga's attitude.

“Look doc, my son is why is so active. Besides, he talks a little. His speech was normal. Is it speech delay or something else ?” holding Dirga in his lap so as not to go down and tear apart the contents of the room.

“Well we do a series of tests to find out. Follow me.” stand then invite Elsa to the play area that has been prepared by Dr. Niken.

Doctor Niken lifts the dirga and raises it to the play area. He gave a toy in the form of a glass and tested Dirga.

“Come Brother, doctor wants to drink, where to drink ?” stand near Dirga and keep watching him.

“What..”

Then Niken's doctor did another test by asking her to speak. But when he was spoken to, Dirga never wanted to look into his eyes and did not want to answer his question.

“After my test, the son of the mother of ADHD, hyperactive disorder. Besides not focusing. Should be his age, he could already tell stories and respond without using a finger to point. My advice Mother take to child psychologist only for more details and get therapy.” lift Dirga from the play area and submit to Elsa.

“Iya doc, thank you.”

It was the only word Elsa could say to cover up her disappointment and anxiety. He seemed unable to accept the reality, but he tried to keep accepting it.

The next day he went to a child psychologist who was at Citra Utama Hospital after getting a child psychologist reference. He did not want to be late to give handling to his son. He also went to see dr. Arsi, the child psychologist at the hospital.

Long wait almost two hours, then the name Dirga called. Elsa immediately went into the child's psychologist's room with Dirga.

dr. Arsi let in. Elsa and Dirga were sitting in a chair, in front of her desk.

“Good day Mom, anything I can help you with ?” a friendly look at Elsa and Dirga.

“Iya doc, look...”

Elsa conveyed all her complaints to the young doctor about all the problems experienced by Dirga. Starting from his hyperactive and unfocused behavior, as well as the problem of speech delay.

After accommodating all the complaints of his patients, he conducted a series of tests on Dirga.

The doctor invited Dirga to interact two ways, face to face and continued to invite him to chat. As well as doing action tests by ordering some things on Dirga.

After a series of tests were completed, the doctor relayed the results.

“I diagnosed Mom's son with a mental disorder, hyperactive autism.” read the note she wrote.

Elsa was in shock instantly and instantly limp as if struck by lightning hearing the explanation from the doctor. His body trembled accepting the reality he did not expect.

“So my son is not speech delay doc?” see dr. Arsi shook her head.

“Then can autism be cured ?”

“Can't Ma'am, it's already congenital from birth. So you have to do a series of therapies to support her growth and development. Here are the types of therapy that can be followed and the schedule.” submit therapy materials.

Elsa received a sheet containing the material. He felt very sad and tried to hold it in front of the psychologist. He then immediately walked out of the room as another patient came in.

He went home with Dirga. On the way, he no longer had the power to stem his grief that finally spilled it. He didn't feel like he was shedding his tears. Tears from her despair. Though she had no problems at all during pregnancy, and even dreamed that her child would become a special child. Does this "special" mean ? The special that made him sad prolonged in despair.

SERIATE...
