Hi,
How wonderful that you are a teacher trying to support the student and parents!! And how excellent that you realize a child may be twice exceptional. Probably others can answer this better, but I think the first step would be to have the child tested by an expert in 2e kids. Hoagies' Gifted site lists a specialist in gifted kids BC here:

Plus, is that someplace the child could reasonably go for testing? Alternatively I know the Gifted Development Center in Colorado (with director Linda Silverman) is willing to do remote evaluations/consultations but I don't know the extent of that plus I did look into it once and it was pricey, but they do have some expertise in 2e. Best of luck and cheers to you for trying to help!! I can tell you that teachers like yourself who try to understand and help kids like this are worth their weight in gold to the kid and the parents as well.
