Yes, he is good even better than me on the apps. But its his medicaid
waiver that has the money for his uber so he can call for one. It sounds like they may have a deal with uber, so they can give our kids with disabilities more ways to get around. I know they say it should be around $ 7.00 which in this price with gas right now I'd be fine with. But we will see. The thing with how his bus is going, we don't know until its time for it to come if its coming. So if I'm not sure he doesn't have a ride. Donna |

Just like last night, about 2:30 Derrick informed me he hoped his bus
came. There had been a mess up that morning. And they were trying to send one for his wabash class which it was the wrong week. So he cancelled it. But got no notice that his bus was coming at 4:10 to 4:40, so I was back from Oxford and told him not to worry I'd take him if it didn't coem. Well it didn't at 4:45 I took him, he is just a little away from the restaurant. So I asked do I come get you just in case. We decided yes, but I got there and in came his bus. So I went in and told him, the bus came in and was early. And the driver was the only one on it. He is the last ride of the day when this happens, especially when the guy is early. So I told him, I didn't want him to tell the guy he didn't need a ride. Because its possible the guy waited two or three hours to get Derrick as his last ride some nights he does. Yes, he gets paid, but that just doesn't sit well with me. So I came home and waited. He came in, I had gotten us dessert earlier. And he got it. No more than he had half eaten it. And I was done, he tells me he isn't sure what is up but he just used his magnet for a really bad headache and will head to bed. So I made sure he got there and gave him tylenol. Also we aren't sure sometimes its just before a seizure. It was just 2 months before he had one. And the signs had been there for a day or two it was coming. Donna |

It sounds like the bus service is really screwing up. not reliable.
sounds really frustrating.I wonder if derrick could learn how to drive. have you ever considered this.He seems high functioning. He could drive himself to work since it is that close. just a thought. ((((HUGS)))) bizi

Derrick doesn't learn to drive because in Indiana you have to be seizure free at least 6 month's for your neurologist to let you drive. And with one of his seizures being the kind that he can kind of not know he is having one but also not know what he is doing. Its not really safe for him to drive. Its also why its not safe
for him to walk to work either. So we will stick to working on the other options. It will work out I'm sure. I just saw Harmony's results from her evaluation before kindergarten this fall. I had been wondering because her mom wasn't really open to saying how it went. Other than they said, she was smart and shouldn't be held back in pre-school. Which I found odd. But it turns out I think mom is having a hard time accepting her moderate disability and autism diagnosis. Which I had already known almost positively she had the autism diagnosis, even though the person doing the Evaluation didn't want to agree 3 years ago. Because she smiles and laughes and things. But she doesn't have complete eye contact. And she is not doing some of the other things she should, and she definitely acts autistic. Donna |

Good Bobby,
I waited till my schedule would be less. Derrick's phone died during the night. So he started on the one that his dad bought by accident. THat runs on verizon. He is really liking it so far. So this is good. But we will see when he gets home from work if he gets home if he can finally get the internet on. Its been giving him a hard time. Donna |

Yes, when he went to work he got some of the internet things there.
And he will get more things later. We will see when that is. I am really not having a clue what to get Will for his birthday or xmas. I'm hoping when I get around to asking my son Devin he will be more help than Meluvja. Everything I suggest she vetos on me. So I keep coming back to the drawing board. I'm at a loss nothing is working. We will see. I also saw Harmony's Evaluation the other day. I can't remember if I told everyone the other day how it read. We will see were she is put in school. But I'm guessing its going to be the special needs classroom, and that her autism title will be now more taking things into prespective. I am just hoping her mom will pay more attention. We will see.
