Well, Aeryn hasn't been to the daycare since Friday. I forgot that PART of her problem is that there is no school this week (Spring Break...yay). No school means no backpack. No backpack means no daycare. I can't do the obvious (put the backpack on her anyways to trick her into staying at the daycare). That is only going to start problems around the time that they are to head out to get the bus in the afternoon. It's a no win situation (to an extent). My older 2 girls are home on Spring Break as well, so I dont have to put my life on hold because I can just drop her back off at home and carry on about my day! YAY! (sucks for them though)
Lets see, Dr. Jordan says that she seems to be progressing very well. He loves her diet (fruit and cheese). He likes that she doesnt need meds to sleep. I asked him about the compression vest and he looked at me like I had a nipple in the middle of my forehead! He said, "why would you want that? It doesnt have any REAL evidence to support that it works. I dont prescribe those so NO, she can't have one. all it does is weigh them down and make them drag around even when they aren't wearing it."
We DID get a prescription for ABA (applied behavioral analysis). I'm not really sure what its for yet though... RESEARCH TIME!!! Dr. Jordan seems to think that it is a GREAT thing and that ALL children that are eligible for it should get it (so we are going). Even more full Fridays... GOODNESS! He also gave her a prescription for an electronic communication device (they use Ipads at the therapists office and all we needed to get her one was the prescription). We will be discussing that this Friday when we go to therapy.
Complete change of subject...
Aeryn has eaten AT LEAST 2 lbs of strawberries today! And she is STILL going strong on them. If only she knew the heartache that is PROBABLY gonna happen when they are ready to get out! LOL! Gotta love her!
I did this post RATHER late. I'll be back in the morning.
Sleep well!
