Took tallin and machineplay's advice and made scheduleish/to do list that sets times to things. Limited writing time to 1 hour for now. (more is fine, but not required. this takes away the 'must be at computer constantly to wait for inspiration or am not a Real Writer.' anxiety.

Have you tried the UW pedo clinic? Need the number? Although, you may also want to try DECOD as well. They handle patients who may be uncooperative for whatever reason.

Pedo Clinic - 206-543-3525

DECOD - 206-543-4619

If he's particularly fearful of the dentist you may want to see if they'll take him in Dental Fears 206-685-2453 as well. They mostly do adult patients, but I know they also work with children and how to make them less fearful of the dentist in general.

I don't know anyone particularly well in any of those clinics, so dropping my name probably won't help.

And thank you, I had completely forgotten about this.

And who was his dentist? I did know a few of the Children's dentists.

his dentist was dr. cypher (scyper? i don't remember how it was spelled).
he's not afraid of the dentist per se as much as being nonverbal, autistic and totally blind, so it's pretty much impossible to explain what's being done or get him to sit still. (granted it has been a while but i don't think he'd sit for a filling - toothbrushing is hit or miss as it is.
thanks SO much for the numbers. i'll call today or tomorrow.

Ok, then I'd go with DECOD. They work extensively with patients like Seanners.

You might try Pedo first, but they'll probably forward you on to DECOD
