Ok, I missed the update, and I guess I should find that ref (I missed a message earlier in the thread, and only saw it now by luck! Anyway, I will find the ref for you CNN)

The harm caused was lower language scores at school age in treated versus untreated kids.

The update is: The letter worked, we received only gentle pushback, and on the first reply they allowed the delay, until we get the results, not even with a firm cut-date like in the contact letter. This is HUGELY more pleasant than when our referral for testing was delayed until we agreed to the treatment referral.

BIG sigh of relief.

DS1: Hon, you already finished your homework
DS2: Quit it with the protesting already!
