Re: another week of bed wetting Chris

[Guest guest]

Hi

its those buttons....we had him stop using the computer for awhile, as he

would click mouse to the point where his hand hurt, but wasn't playing or doing

anything on the screen, just clicking the mouse.

We're hoping this helps, we're letting him watch TV in his room, but he has

to get out of bed to change the channel.

His games we'll move to the living room, if that doesn't work....I'm out of

ideas.

So how is with buttons now?

He has a standing appt every Wednesday after school.

Hi , had problems with the TV remote too. For a while,

the rest of us had to change channels for him. He wouldn't even

try. Yes, it got on my nerves after a while for him to call me, I'd

go see what he wanted and it was to change a channel! And he wasn't

allowed to turn the computer on/off either. He was still playing

video games back then, I don't know that he got " stuck " playing them

but I (and ) noticed he did seem to repeat some things (have

character repeat) or push buttons more than needed.

Glad he was able to tell you the problem, and hopefully will help him

get to the bathroom now!

Keep us updated on the therapist, is the next appt soon?

Hi , finally got past that button (or switch)

repeat/just right stuff.

I guess one of the first successes was with light switches, not

repeating. And water faucets. The TV remote took a long while. But

finally one day he was able to push in the channel number he wanted

(no repeats) and change channels that way. No scrolling up/down thru

channels though, might get " stuck. " He's fine with all that these

days.

Good idea you had about his having to get up to change channels.

Hope you see many improvements soon, what with therapy every week!!

Hi

You know... Micah does the water faucets too. In his bath we have lever

type, and has to keep re-tighting, as Micah keeps pushing on them and they

loosen.

No changes in buttons....but his hand writing is getting better, still not

what it was, but I can read it again. He's only at 1/2 dose, so hopefully it

will all come back and buttons will stop being a problem.

Therapy every week.....here's hoping improvement soon!
