    • Hug

      From StepN April 20

      Gio has a tube that they flush his calcium out with the use of medication. It is bad that we did not know how damaging the calcium was before he was diagnosed. If we would have know his eyesight could have been saved.... Anyway Gio is a very happy child now. He loves his diego, dora and music. We are trying to help him walk. He will walk holding somoeones hand, but he does need to build his core muscles a little bit more. Also we have to teach him to hold out his hands so he will not bump into things. Most families that I have talked to, the cildren sometimes don't start walking til they are about 4. My grandson in 3 , so I guess we are kind of on schedule.

      From EvansMomma February 23

      Evan has a service dog due to his hypertension and high blood pressure. The dog is suppose to help calm him and alert me when I need to check his blood pressure. She has alerted 3 times so far and was right all three times. She is still somewhat a puppy and is still in training but she has been great for him so far. Her job is to also provide companionship for him. I got her through an organization called pawsibilities unleashed.org. You should check it out if your interested.
