Dystonia is a neurological movement disorder characterized by involuntary muscle contractions, which force certain parts of the body into abnormal, sometimes painful, movements or postures. Dystonia can affect any part of the body including the arms and legs, trunk, neck, eyelids, face, or vocal cords.

February 1st, 2012

Report cards came out and Tyler, Luke, and Samantha have straight As in school.

Tyler is recovering well from his surgery and appears to be infection free. Tomorrow he has the regional science fair at Santa Fe College. He is in the botany division. His dystonia is still bad with his left arm continuously pulling up into the air. The docs are trying hard to find a setting that can help this but have not found it yet. He is applying to different high schools next year and waiting for his acceptance letters.

Samantha is applying to middle schools and waiting for her letters. She now has a new ambition  of playing middle school volleyball. Anyone else I would have thought this would be impossible but with Samantha I believe she can do it. She has started to train with Merideth again and is excited about having the new goal. Her feet still trun some and her core isnt as strong as before but we are hoping to find her optimal programming also.

Luke is doing well in basketball and loves a new electric scooter that was given to him. He is not showing any symptoms of dystonia. He likes mathematics. He does not eat well but that could be a combination of teeth he just got fixed and no appetite. He is skinny and very very active. He is a sweet boy that has a great sense of humor.

Saint Michelle cut her hair and is learning lots of new things as she helps each of the kids with their homework each day. We have had the opportunity to go on several dates to differnet fund raisers with our friends while Tyler stayed home with Samantha and Luke. All of us went to a cabin in North Carolina for a few days of relaxation.
