I'm sick again, unfortunately. I'm spending my time washing my hands until they're dry and practically raw. And we finally got the paperwork filed to begin the long process to procure the babies' wheelchairs. The rep will come to the house next month to take their measurements and show us a catalog. I understand it can take about 3 months to receive it after the order is placed. Anyone know of a local place which can convert a Toyota minivan to accomodate two powerchairs? I want an electric lift, not manual ramps. I do enough work as it is, no need to make me in charge of pushing heavy chairs up old-fashioned ramps. I guess we'll need a ramp for the house, too, so that they can enter and exit the front and back of the house.... along with wider doorframes.... hmm. This is a pretty significant change in our lives.
The new medication the twins were prescribed from Dr. Swoboda last month still seem to be working. Our physical therapist agrees with us that their stamina is improving, and their overall perkiness and morale along with it. Plus they're still eating really well--I'll take it! I love me some chubby babies.
That's all the update for now. TGIF!
too stinkin' cute!!!
ReplyDeleteCass check this blog out, I don't know if these would be good for the twins or not but I found them to be pretty cool. http://adaptedworld.wordpress.com/2009/05/
ReplyDeleteOkay, that was SO adorable. I love hearing Lauren talk - she talks really well. Much better than my two. I was wondering how the wheelchair process was going. They must be easier than pushing the double stroller I'm assuming? I'm glad to hear the medication is still working!
