Rolling and goober

Here's a clip of Corb's medication (Benztropine) starting to work very well. It's been 2 weeks at only 1ml, the dose will slowly continue to increase. I'm still increasing his pump every week - two weeks too, it's up to 610 (I think, kinda hard to keep track, Gillette is awesome about that though).

Stinker, he does reach up and play with the toys a lot more now, he has even gotten his arms/fingers caught in some of them.

Here's Corb rolling at Polinsky Medical Rehab Center with his new OT Jason. I'm pretty excited because yeah Corb has three guys in his life but none that, like pick him up and move him around so he has always been extra fearful of men and in only 3 sessions, he's not showing as many stranger danger reactions. He's really handling this whole VERY new situation rather well. It's pretty cool too Jason already knew of Corb because 3 years ago he was attending the college of St. Scholastica, were Corb goes for their OT clinic (here we come in Feb Yeah!). Jason didn't have Corb there but he knew of him and remembered him right away. Jason has been really great and very understanding of...see now here's were I would get “get over it” from some people and it makes me not want to write what I want to say.....guess what I'm doing it anyway...Jason is very nice about the fact that I know Corb very well and that I just want to show him WHO Corb is, like the words I use, be it...get your head, sit way up, stick it way out and hold it (his tongue for chocolate lol) etc., or like how he needs a little help with that arm or that leg or like if you sit him cross-legged you have to tip his hips back or he can't stay up by himself (and isn't that the point) or like if you just wiggle a toy in front of him he will lift his head and will continue to engage with you or that face means something feels yucky or that face means he's VERY scared (this one makes me cry) or that face means he's hurting, maybe his tummy, maybe his tone has kicks in and a toy is under his hand and the pressure/force of his arm pushing down is hurting a hand/finger and since he don't know how to move his hand, the tone just continues to push harder harder harder and people want me to get over it when I want to share with school WHO he is. Oooooops didn't mean to write a book but anyway THANK YOU Jason for making me feel proud to be the mom I am and allowing me to be open to share my ideas and feelings with you and thank you for being excited to share your ideas with me. You and Corb are going to have a great time.

We're thinking about asking the city maybe like the Mayor or some one, if him and his friends can do this as a fundraiser. They could collect donations while acting like goobers lol.

Corbin Lee's committee is working on a time and date to hold a fundraising meeting.

Caradie and Corbin
