Maybe tomorrow i'll feel like updating the long story, but the short story is that we've recieved a few therapy related blows here lately, and am looking for a new speech therapist. And a signing teacher if we can't find a speech path that signs. We're also toying with a new diagnosis that is hard to describe. It outwardly looks like a muscle strength issue but is really neurologically based. Is it the end of the world? No. Did it come at a really bad time? It feels like it.
We're also hoping to get Micah's next surgery on the schedule, so I can stop worrying about planning my life around it. Right now there's a solid two months I'd trying to avoid planning anything.
On the plus side, yesterday he decided to feed himself ketchup on a french fry! It's the first time he's really initiated eating anything! MMM ketchup! I'll try get the picture up soon (it's on Facebook).
Sorry to hear that you are having therapy issues. Did the lady from First Steps leave?
ReplyDeleteAlso, I got the name of the church that use to offer signing classes wrong -- it was the Church of the Nazarene on St. Rd. 15.
Love you all, Aunt Joni
