Guest guest Posted February 24, 2002 Report Share Posted February 24, 2002 Becki..this is terrific news! To find someone besides you and the doctors. For someone reason and a very sad one..alot of school officials don't understand what a child with jra goes through. To me..the physical therapist you found was sent from somewhere to be yours and davids angel. I was really happy with Tabs high school she is in but now they are giving me trouble about her absences..now i have to call the nurse when Tab is not feeling well and tell her what is wrong..then she will give me her opinion if she should stay home or not. Which really makes me angry..i feel like i am a little kid who don't know how to judge when my child is not feeling well...they don't understand that Tab just gets worn out..that this disease can just totally wipe her out..energy wise. Sorry to ramble on..tired of the aggrivation. I will be glad once she graduates and is out of the school system..and college bound. But I am happy for you and your son..good luck! karen(tab16..poly) From: Allan Larson <alarson1@...> Reply- " " < > Subject: s IEP Date: Fri, 22 Feb 2002 21:05:45 -0800 Hi its Becki,anyone who responded to me about IDEA and 504plans give yourself a much deserved pat on the back.All I wanted to do was find out what they were and get some ideas before started kindergarden fall 2003.Well one thing led to another and he started getting speech right before christmas,then they started talking about preschool and gave him every test they had,yesterday we were supposed to get results not placemant.Well the PT that evaluated stole the show,she worked with JRA kids at the arthritis clinic in Memphis,and was able to explain to them how misunderstanding this disease can be that we dont see him at night after a full day or how hard it can be just to get up in the morning.She was his biggest advocate and wanted him to get PT now not next fall.So these 7 people got really excited and had to find away to get certified in 2 areas so he would be able to go under IDEA instead of 504.It was alittle frustraiting at first because all these teachers kept saying the same thing ,he is advanced in everything so we cant say hes this or that,the school sychologists thinks that hes gifted and wants him tested even though they dont test preschoolers.I cant remember how they did it,but they did it. starts special ed preschool 2 times a week for half a day.He will go to music on mon and gym on thurs.The pt has already talked to the gym teacher who is supposed to be great.The idea is to get him ready for full days of preschool next year and to get an idea of his limitations.There is alot of walking around and she wants to help him build muscle and stamina.I could go on and on,but I wont.The OT that i didnt like changed her tune after learning about JRA and that we are trying to keep him flexable not to fix things,so she wasnt going to recommend it,needless to say will be getting PT and OT.She was so appoligetic to me.She just didnot understand like most people dont.All is great and is really excited about being able to go to school with his big sister.Hugs to all,and THANK YOU!
