Our OU Students....

Last week was the last visit with our OU-for our Family Practicum Intervention Plan.  Jeremy got 3 girls this year, Nicole, Maryella and Emily so he had so much fun with them.  They got involved with us when we first came home from Jeremy's 1st spinal surgery and Jeremy was working to re-gain motor skills.  They got an initial visit with us, and then was able to observe our SLP at the house one day, they never got the opportunity to observe Jeremy at school or outside the home.   One of the concerns I have with Jeremy is him being able to interact with his typical peers, I want him to build up friendships with his peers.  This is a life skill that everyone needs, his peer of today are going to be his future employer, business owners and he needs to be social.  The part of this program is for them to observe Jeremy at home, gather information, research which is always a challenge with FG syndrome but they always come up with new information I've not seen, then come up with a plan.  They came up with Jeremy join a local boy scout troop, I had actually thought of that in the past so this was a good idea.  

Here are some pictures, mostly Jeremy playing ball with the girls, getting them to chase the ball and throw it around.  Jeremy was so tired when they left, he was ready for bed.
