Lots of NEWS!!!!!

In the last few posts we have been saying that there will be a post with news.So here it is.
Once we came back from Houston it was recommended that we have both the boys evaluated for ADHD and Disruptive Behaviour Disorder.Well we did and they were both dx with that.

Mark is on some natural things to help him focus more and stay a little calmer when things don't go his way.We are not giving Broc anything as we do not want to compromise his health issues anymore.Mark is also receiving some Sensory Therapy at school which is helping too.His teacher seems to be a little more understanding than she was in the beginning.

Our BIG news is that our Buddy Broc went to school for the first time today.He was evaluated by the Special Ed Pre-school and he was accepted.We are very happy about this as he is very smart and we know that but he does lack in some areas such as social skills and being able to do some things for himself.They are also going to give him sensory therapy as well as behavioral  therapy.We are very fortunate as all his issues will be dealt with at school.Broc was also dx with Developmental Co-Ordination disorder, we think it goes along with the chromosome disorder that we all have.
Here are some pics of today and a 2 videos.Please let me know if you cannot view the videos and then I can send them to you.

It was very early.I literally dressed him in bed.Poor guy the bus comes at 6:50am.He ate his poptart on the way to school.He was very excited when he saw the bus.

Those are the 2 videos of him catching the bus.

When he came home he said that he had so much fun.He played with lots of trucks and balls - his favorite things.
A great report came home for the day so we are very happy.The only downfall is that there are lots of germs at school so we will have to see how that goes.

As far as Brocs health goes we are waiting for a number of answers from Dr H.We are hoping to start treatment for Broc soon too.We just have to fight with the insurance company as to why he needs it.
We also have his CT Scan to look forward to in Dec.We are hoping very much that there has not been much growth and that we can have another CT Scan at the end of March and if the growth is still not very big then we are hoping to stretch surgery till the Summer- end of May.We would really like Broc to receive a full 5 1/2 months of pre-school.If he has his surgery at the beginning of April then he would miss the last 2 months of school and miss out on all that support and help and therapy.

Winter Break is coming up soon so we are hoping to see a few great places....
If anyone has any questions at all please feel free to ask us.
