FOR A MOTHER OF THREE BOYS AND ONE WITH SPECIAL NEEDS IT'S PRETTY HARD. MY OTHER TWO OLDEST BOYS ARE 11 AND THE OTHER IS GOING ON 7 SOON. THEY CAN ACTUALLY MANAGE DOING THINGS AROUND THE HOUSE. BUT MOST OF THE TIME THEY DON'T WANT TO DO ANYTHING, BUT TO PLAY PLAYSTATION AND SOMETIMES THEY DON'T WANT TO EAT. BUT JUNK FOOD. WITH MY LITTLE BABY BOY JOSHUA, I HAVE TO FEED HIM THROUGH HIS BUTTON. HE IS DOING A LOT BETTER SINCE HE HAD SURGERY. HE IS GETTING A LOT BETTER. HE IS GAINING MORE WEIGHT. HE IS NOW AT 20 IBS AND A 1/2 OZ. HE ROLLS OVER, SOMETHING HE COULDN'T DO BEFORE. THAT MADE ME VERY HAPPY. HIS NEUROLOGISTS TOLD ME IF I DIDN'T SAY THIS BEFORE, THAT HE MAY NOT DO ANYTHING EXCEPT FOR TO SIT. BUT SINCE I TOOK HIM TO THAT HEALER IN ORLANDO THAT HE, MY SON PROVED HIM SO WRONG. HIS DRAW DROPPED WHEN HE SAW HIM. MY SON, JOSHUA ROLLED OVER FROM FRONT TO BACK AND FROM THE BACK TO THE FRONT. HE PICKED HIM UP AND HE TOLD ME 'IS THERE ANYTHING THAT I CAN DO FOR YOU" EXACT WORDS. I TOLD HIM NO. I'M GOOD. HE WAS SO SHOCKED. BUT HE TOOK AN UPDATED EEG TO SEE ABOUT THE SEIZURES AND HE IS STILL THE SAME. FROM LAST IT WAS A TINY BIT BETTER. BUT HE STILL HAS THE SPIKES.
JOSHUA WENT ABOUT A MONTH AGO TO FIT FOR HIS WEELCHAIR/STROLLER CHAIR. IT LOOKS REAL CUTE. IT'S FOR HIM TO SIT IN IT STRAIGHT AND TO PUT HIS HEAD STRAIGHT UP WITH OUT HIM SLOUCHING. I'M ALWAYS CARRYING HIM AND HE IS GETTING VERY HEAVY. BUT HE WILL DO GOOD IN IT. THEN HE IS GETTING THE BATH TUB BECAUSE HE CAN'T FIT IN THE BABAY ONE. OF COURSE NOT HE IS 22 MONTHS OLD. HE IS GETTING TO HEAVY AND TOO BIG. AND HE IS ALSO GETTING A STANDER. SO HE CAN STAND UP ON IT STRAIGHT. HE IS ALWAYS LAYING DOWN. BUT HE WILL DO BETTER. NOW IT IS THE WAITING GAME WITH HIM.
BUT LIKE I WAS SAYING BEING A MOTHER IS HARD WITH TAKING CARE OF A SPECIAL NEEDS BOY. THEY NEED A LOT OF ATTENTION. A LOT OF LOVE. PLUS I WOULD HAVE TO CLEAN THE HOUSE AND COOK AND HELP MY OTHER TWO BOYS WITH THERE HOMEWORK. YES THE DAD IS HERE TOO BUT HE HELPS TOO. BUT I DON'T REALLY HAVE THAT MANY FRIENDS OUT HERE. I WAS LOOKING FOR SOME MOTHERS GROUP OUT HERE THAT I CAN INTERACT WITH OTHER MOMS BUT THERE ISN'T ANY OUTSIDE OF THE INTERNET. BUT THERE ARE SOM WEBSITES THAT ARE FOR MOTHERS AND PARENTS.
