As far as Joey's healing. He is doing awesome. No more HUGE changes for the last several months, but he sure is building on the changes he has made. His eyesight is really coming around. I'm praying that after our trip to Costa Rica for more SCT his eyesight will be completely restored. He is a lot more cognitively aware. His response time is much quicker and he is saying a ton more words. A few weeks ago we got Joey's wheelchair. He loves it. It makes a big difference in his posture. Joey is a very happy boy. I am very very pleased with his progress.
We leave for CR in 8 1/2 weeks. We are going with two other moms and kids. When we are there, he will also receive ABM therapy. this looks similar to PT, but it works more on the neurological level. Then when we get back from CR we will do more Intensive Suit Therapy at NAPA Center and hopefully more ABM.
I finally got a new van this weekend. What a convenience it is. The ramp is in the back. Joey sits in his wheelchair for the ride. I'm sure my back will be saved.
I'm still trying to raise monies for our Costa Rica trip. Please help! You can donate through paypal on the link on the right column.
Blessings Always

There is a new CP website www.CerebralPalsySocial.org and I suspect you will probably want to know about it. It’s for people who cope with cerebral palsy directly or indirectly, on a daily basis.
So what can I say about it. It pays to have a look because you’ll see we’ve taken our first steps and now want to increase membership to make it more useful for all who use it.
You are invited to open a blog, use the bookmark function, start polling, open a group or join an existing group, connect your Twitter or FriendFeed to your profile, and the options are growing all the time. Most of all, you can stay in touch with your friends and make new ones!
So, stay well and stay in touch.
