His hands and fingers are pretty useless too since he can't grasp anything, so no ipods or ipads will work for him. I think Kenny's frustration levels will decrease with the ceye so he can tell us what is wrong.<br /><br /><br />So glad that Cj is using his dynavox and can use the ipad. It's so hard to find fun stuff for our boys. Looks like he enjoys playing on the ipad.Ranae Hooknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3688531090425606429.post-84294077518985227142011-03-12T15:09:22.156-05:002011-03-12T15:09:22.156-05:00Sorry, it cut off the first part of my post.

The technology they have now is amazing! It means everything to our kids. Ryan got a new Dynovox this year too and is doing very well with it. He can use the touch screen and typed the other day - "Athena girlfriend" I said oh, do you like playing with her or do you think she is cute? He typed "cute" and gave me a great big smile! It made me laugh but also wonder, what else does he think about that I don't know. He's only 10 - girls already? Really?!

I will keep you posted on his progress.<br /><br />Phil, The van should be here in a week or two. We go down the Cape at least a couple times a year, one of my favorite places on earth. We would love to stop in for a visit. I will call you and make plans. We have not seen you for a couple years, and I would love to see Adam! I do miss seeing Leonid, they were the good olde days... Can't believe we went to Canada four times a year. Ryan grew up there, he used to ask if we were going to ABR once a week for years...lolLisa Cj's Momhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08766356170253660694noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3688531090425606429.post-75995754180756432282011-03-02T19:46:20.022-05:002011-03-02T19:46:20.022-05:00I am very happy for you and Cj, too!

If the ST is familiar with Dynavox, you will be really pleased with the technology...it's the best of what is out there for assistive communication.<br /><br />Nice chair!! Ever notice that the cost of equipment for our kids is about 10,000% higher that the cost of materials to make it? I have always been amazed at the costs of equipment for kids with handicaps...making money off the most vulnerable population.<br /><br />You will love the conversion van. We are on #3; including the one we "lost" at the Quality Inn in Laval, Montreal? The good olde days....<br /><br />Warmest wishes to all!!Phil Dzialohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04150881545903849250noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3688531090425606429.post-13229437921890451462011-02-26T15:40:54.499-05:002011-02-26T15:40:54.499-05:00Thanks Mel!
