Confessions from the mind of this sleep deprived mom navigating the world of complex medical needs, deafblindness, and special education. And y'all, it may not always be pretty, but it's real, and it's always for the love of Ivey.

loving her new stander
Ivey is up and standing. She has on her new shoes and AFO's. Heather, Ivey's speech therapist, gave her the green tube last week also. Ivey will chew on any tube she can get her hands on (she may be blind, but she can find any of her tubes) like her suction tube, venting tube, feeding tube, nebulizer tube and her humidifing tube. This tube is actually made to be chewed on, can you believe that? She loves it. She is great a manipulating it with her hands.
