Guest guest Posted August 18, 2006 Report Share Posted August 18, 2006 <<But my other option would be to pound the ape into oblivion - so he would then find another tape and find a phrase and play IT until I was crazed........... so I guess they need to communicate that they know how to be annoying - just like any other kid.>> Hi, Everyone....Sara....there's a few tapes of Gareth's that I would like to trash, too, but don't have the heart!!! And, yes, they can be very annoying, but other kids are, too!!! <<'s orthopedist recently took an x-ray of the hips and everything is fine. He also wears the SMO orthotics, which have definitely improved his stability >> ....are SMO's the braces for the ankles? Gareth just got a pair of ankle braces last January because his ankles just about hit the floor they rolled in so bad. I never knew about them till his PCP recommended them. For years, I would ask Gareth if his feet/ankles hurt and he always said 'no.' Two weeks after he had the braces, he said to me " Mom, feet don't hurt. Leg don't hurt. " Geeeeeeeesh.....it's not like I never asked him!!! I guess he had pain but just could not relate the pain from his ankles/legs as *pain* when I would ask him. Does that make sense? Take care, Everyone. Margaret Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
