DialSafe Pro

 

 

FREE today and works for both the iPad and iPod!  I can’t say enough great things about this app!  I’m working on Bristel and Trevy with learning our phone numbers and this app is just the perfect fit!  One of the best perks is that you can record little messages so they feel like they’re talking to you.  What little one isn’t over the moon for recorded love notes from daddy while he’s at work?!

Montessori Counting Board

 

FREE today!  Works on iPad and Pod.  I’m a sucker for anything Montessori and I have to say this app is SOOOOO great!  Especially, for Trevy who doesn’t catch on to counting things easily.  Counting is Montessori-fied which makes it easier to digest.  In love

Gube

 

FREE today.  Works with iPad and Pod.  I have been WAITING for this app for, like, ever!  Trevy is a YouTube-ing fool.  But somehow he always finds disturbing videos.  I mean, seriously, people…do we really need to see Barney killing Dora?!  Sheesh!  Gube solves that!  Only safe YouTube videos are accessible!  The only downside is Trevy loooooves watching videos of himself and they’re not Gube approved.  But other than that…this app is PERFECT! 

 

Enjoy your Pad!

Gube isn't showing up as free. That being said, I'd never heard of it and may buy it anyway as I am tired of Peppa Pig being cooked. Thanks!

Gube was only free yesterday, when I posted. :/ I'm not sure the regular price. It's a little clunky...but overall great!

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...
