Easter OT (sprinkled with ST & if you're clever perhaps even some PT)

easter eggs Pictures, Images and Photos


So I found these really cute little Easter Eggs at Target the other day.



They were pre-filled. Which already gave it an A+ in my book.



But the fact that they were filled with something other than candy is what has me itching to go back for more!



These eggs were filled with Little People...Seasame Street figurines...HotWheels...Playdough...and more! I'm partial to the Little People and SS ones because Trevy is so chewy. But honestly...there are just SO many fun ways to use these things!



Especially after watching Miss. Speech play a similar game with Trevy this week. There were lots of great factors to this little game!



It fed Trevy's cause & effect addiction! Opening and finding and replacing and shutting. Kept his attention for at least 2-3 minutes in a row!



Inside the eggs were hidden little animal figures. Which Miss. Speech used as ques to help Trevy work on their various sounds or actions. Trevy likes to hop hop hop like a bunny. He's very into movement too!



It's a great OT work out for kiddos like Trevy...who favor one side of their body over the other and need to be encouraged to use both hands!



He could carry the little basket around the room. Which is a great pre-Easter prep tool!



Anyway...I thought it was just the greatest! And just had to share the wealth!

No, I don’t know him personally

  I’ve had several emails today asking if I know Mike W. of Marissa’s Bunny personally.    Trevy’s blog was linked on her site.  Although it’s not now.     I’ve posted here and there at his request.  Because…well…we’re a community.  Us IS families.  And Marissa is wicked cute.  Her daddy has a way with words.  Also who wouldn’t want the world to know about an iPad give-away?    But aside from that…I know about as much as you do.    We’ve never met in person.    Our only communication has been cyber.    I’m a ginormous sap and as such would love to believe that all is right.  That the sweet, beautiful families who were promised iPads will be getting them tonight.  Tomorrow at the latest.  That no one has been lied to.  That the personal thank you for your generosity email I sent him on behalf of other IS families I’ve grown to love and was thrilled to learn w...

the great answer hunt in the land of Infantile Spasms

If I've said it once... I've thought it a million times more. How it's like the more I research...and discover...about IS. The more blurry everything becomes. For every answer found. A dozen questions are unearthed. Remember our whole ARX saga ? Yeah...that threw me for a loop. So much so...that I never went on to post the end of the story. Thus far... See...the unbelievable in the world of genes happened. Because this is IS-ville after all. After Dr. Genes sampled Trevy's ARX gene on a whim...a whim which revealed an unkown (meaning the first time this specific change was found) mild mutation...she proceeded to send Toby's blood off to mad scientist central. With assurances that this was totally unnecessary . She was convinced that Trevor's ARX mutation was the underlying cause of his Infantile Spasms. And that Typical Toby...would prove to be just that. Typical...at least in all areas mutate-able. And yet...Toby's ARX blood sample revealed THE SAME MIL...

I sure hope...

they grow back curly! Saw the "unknown" flashing on the face of my cell phone and knew who it was. Who it had to be. Dr. Fellow. My eyes met Grams' and I nodded. Grams has a pool, see. For super hot days like today. We're also having a septic installed. Which meant no water or facilities at my place. But those weren't really the reasons I was there. Close to mom. The purple ringing thing in my hand was. Only I wasn't prepared for it to be ringing SO darn soon. Shortly after lunch instead of dinner! I swallowed. Took a deep breath. And clicked connect. Dr. Fellow has a very nice phone tone. Clear. Hint of compassion. If only a stitch of humor were added...it'd be heavenly. But there was no humor. Just business. He's very direct. I'm learning that about him. Which explains his short hello. Followed by immediately pushing into the news. Being that it was a unanimous consensus. The entire surgical committee feels Trevor is a good candidate. And then p...
