random-nings

 Bristel comes strutting around the corner in all her birthday suit glory and dramatically declares...


I was feeling uncomfortable in all those clothes! 



I promptly sent her boot back upstairs to make herself uncomfortable again.  And after she was out of sight...laughed hysterically! 



::smile::

Trevor has this to say as I passed by his room the other morning...



ROOOOOOOOOOAR! 



***********



Toby from the backseat...


You know mom, I find the news very interesting.

Bristel in the yard out of the blue...


You wanna know my wishes, mommy?


Sure, honey.


I wish for Trevy to read like a real person...


I wish to never get another boo boo...


and I wish for all the people in the universe to be nice to eachother.

Toby upon missing a shot after I came outside to watch him shooting hoops...


You know mom...I think you jinx me.

Bristel during a recent bath...


It would be great if we had three bathrooms instead of one...


Then Toby and Trevy could take a bath together...


You and me could take one...


And daddy and Callie could be together!


In case you haven't met her yet...



(Callie is the furry one)

Toby to the babysitter when she was asking too many questions of him...


Miss. Jen...


You know I'm not mom, right?

Toby is not a fan of storms.  So needless to say the impending Sir Earl has him feeling a bit stressed.  Okay.  VERY stressed.  Which is why we'll be having conversations about random things like if he wants to play Fall Ball.  And he'll respond with random things like...


If I even make it that long



We Foltzes are nothing if not dramatic!

a different kind of muscle — guardianship process

  To all the parents who have walked through the guardianship process — my heart is with you. Our paperwork is prepped and ready to submit this week. He turns 18 on April 3rd. I've been thinking about this for a year now, but only just mustered the energy to move forward — the loom of his birthday my propellant. Overwhelm has paralyzing effect. I'm struggling to recall the last time I didn't feel overwhelmed. It struck me how all these years of walking through disability beside Trevor should have made me stronger and yet... I suppose it's a different kind of muscle being developed.

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...
