Subject: My date with Master Stevo, such a precious gift

Forwarding my brag moment which I had just shared among other fellows,

so sorry for the crosspost.

I have to brag had a wonderful evening with my son.

Despite the traffic which was bumper to bumper and the slick roads

with sirens due to accidents in every direction as I drove out to the

theater out at the Rim (local theater), from getting out of the house,

out to the parking lot, then entering the theater into a long line for

the Premier movie of " Bedtime Stories " as one of my sister invited us

to join them.

Normally I would of said " no, thank you " , for some reason told her

" yes " . Guess I was ready to conquer this challenge once again since

his set backs health wise we were unable to attend theaters as he once

did in the past which took some work and then regress.

To observe this was another mission accomplished, he waited nicely

without any meltdown moments, no stress at my end. Sometimes

securities would offer for us to go in early but no special treatments

needed and I did forget to take some of his GF/CF snacks but all was well.

As we enter inside the screen room, just awesome he was just like

everyone cooperated in a nice manner and sat pretty

cooperative/ independently, all good sign, still no melt downs.

He actually sat through the entire movie, very alert and even laughed

on one occasion said " look " , to me to hear this was just incredible as

he is nonvocal.

I must say though I thought this movie was too cute, had me laughing

too, actually able to sit through the entire movie and enjoy it,loving

the moment as he did not have any meltdowns. Actually was able to

tolerate his surroundings as he has been dx'd with severe sensory

process disorder.

I am still pinching myself we actually survived throughout the entire

screening, we did not even have to wait until the credits was done as

he once would have a fit. He got up when we all did and cooperated

nicely out. It was such an incredible date to be with him as he held

my arm watching over me.

Plus he had also receive some compliments how well dressed he looked,

such a GQ young men, he gave a little smile.

All worth it with the alternative biomedical intervention he is under

which could be time consuming learning anything involved here and to

witness some social outing like this, just incredible that some of the

behavioral issues decrease, do not want to jinx it as I just never

know what kind of day I am going to tackle.

Today, can be a struggle with some of his compulsiveness which has

been a battle these past days but I'll take this excitement of the day

for now.

Thank you Holly, as you know there are those days like now what?

Then when something like this happens it is such a relief to know I am

on the track of understanding some of his groove.

OMG! I just sneezed, not to sound gross but is sitting behind

me watching the Iron Giant movie like about going on round 2 and just

expressed a nice loud and clear " Bless you " . Just awesome.

has really been expressing how much he enjoys Christmas.
