Torrid, I'm curious, too, and not just for myself. Someone in my family is being assessed and is coming up with an audio processing delay. This condition, in theory, doesn't necessarily abate, but can be compensated for in healthy ways. This is one example. The delays of being born premature might be different and could indeed be brought up to one's optimal level of functioning.
I was born before assessments for children became more standard. Now I consider myself as add-inattentive. Easily overwhelmed. However, had I been run through the assessment process as a child, it is possible something like a delay would have presented. Just my on-going thoughts.
May I ask what symptoms you are dealing with, and what you identify as delays?
