Well lets just say that the first appointment was not the best! Lots and lots of questions and medical back-ground on Jason. The Therapist almost seemed argumentative! We had to drive about a hour and 20 minutes to get to her so I think we were all in a "mood" by the time we got there. Jason had a great time, he played, he ate about 3 bites of pancakes, and "stunk up the room". So we will see where we go from here, we are waiting to see when we see her next, her schedule is very hectic!!! But we are making progress, Jason was HUNGRY last night! He seems to LOVE sweet and sour chicken! We gave him a big fork and he went to work. YIPPEE! We may get sick of sweet and sour but oh well!!!
Today he is showing signs of either a cold coming on or allergies, needless to say his nose is running!
BUT we have finished his play room ( well about 95%) I need to change the valance and put his pictures up. We are taking pictures of his favorite things and putting them down low so since he is not talking he can show us what he wants or we can show him Callie or Hana for "doggie", or Mommy or Daddy, or chair, sippy cup, etc. Any suggestions on what to put pi cures up of?

Just found the link to your blog from your facebook page. I'm glad you guys have found an answer, it has to be scary yet releaving all at the same time. Jason couldn't ask for better parents to help him through this!
ReplyDeleteAs far as the pictures on the wall, I think it's a great idea! I would include a picture of food, help him let you know when he wants to eat! I would also suggest pictures of a book, and maybe pictures of feelings to help him tell you how he feels (happy, sad, angry, hurt, sick, tired, etc...) I would also say it's never to late to start thinking about potty training. maybe have a picture of a toilet to start the association between wet diapers and the bathroom.
