Guest guest Posted February 6, 2007 Report Share Posted February 6, 2007 I have a question for those that live in Texas. One of my assistants that worked with me is now working with a student who is deaf and blind. She is going at the end of this month to a conference in Austin. She said that there is a session on Charge Syndrome. I told her that if she met any moms and they are on the message board to tell them that JD's mommy says hello. Is any one going? Also is there a website to the information? If I had known I could have gone and gotten my CE credits for my masters. Anyways, to everyone else.JD is coming home today. We are happy and he is getting his feeds over 45min. Thursday he is getting them over 30min and then next monday 15min. Thanks for all of your prayers and warm wishes. & , parents to twins: Olivia walking and JD(cHArgE: Choanal Atresia, Heart Repair, TE-F Repair, G-Tube, Trach, on CPap, severe to profound hearing loss) 16 1/2 months , Waxahachie, Texas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted February 7, 2007 Report Share Posted February 7, 2007 The website is www.tsbvi.edu/. On the home page, you will see " 2007 Deafblind Symposium " which will take you to conference registration and also a list of the presenters and their topics. It should be an excellent syposium with opportunities to visit with quite a number of CHARGE families. The symposium is every other year; it's well attended , well planned and I always leave with more information than I can absorb in such a short period of time. Hope you can come to one in the future. You could spend days and days on the TSBVI site looking for information on visual impairments as well as deafblindness and its implications. For teachers of D/B students, VI students and multi-impaired students, the resources are tremendous. You will find " best practices " in educational programs, continuous additions to contents on the site, and more information than you can imagine ever needing...but you will at some time or another. As a VI teacher, it's one of the best resources I have for myself as well as my students and their families. Hope you can find something useful on the website.

Guest guest Posted February 7, 2007 Report Share Posted February 7, 2007 , Garland and I are going. I am having to take friend to watch him, but it is all worth it. I went 2 years ago and this year I am looking forward to this one. The CHARGE session should be great it is being done by Brown. He is awesome! It is more about children with CHARGE in a learning environment. I apologize for not mentioning it to you. With everything going on with JDK, I did think about it. Glad to hear the good news. Take care. , Randy & Garland Goodwin ---- erin32573@... wrote: ============= I have a question for those that live in Texas.
