No, no and no.

K appeared to have slept in, left bedroom at 7 AM. He had a rather pleasant morning.

After eating breakfast, he had NAC mixed with peanut butter, closer to 9:30 AM. He read his book for school all by himself and reviewed his word list with no errors.

He then took a shower, but had trouble maintaining focus and seemed forgetful when asking him to use shampoo and soap.

He refused to get dressed. This has been the biggest challenge almost every single morning. It takes a solid hour of back and forth between my simple and basic commands to him saying no, but stating how he wants to get dressed. I end up dressing him, but he doesn't resist, get angry, or react at all. Once complete, he appears disappointed, in himself, but is now able to function again.

This ordeal is tough even for me to endure. I watch his mind and body fight with each other. He is clearly unable to get his body to cooperate with his want, his need to dress. It is such an odd confliction, especially since we never ever had this issue before.

K had a good afternoon at school. He was able to tell me ways an octopus can hide from a shark. (Prior issue: relaying information was nonexistent)
In the car, he pointed spontaneously and said how the light is swinging. I asked what was making the street light swing back and forth, he replied with wind blow.
Once home and settled in, he tried to read books out loud by himself. Not exactly an interest. He was sounding out words, really trying. Begins books with "Once Upon a Time" and then "The End".
