On break

Starting next week, Dzaki will be taking "break" from theraphy, and keep continuing outdoor program at home.

This came as result of my discussion with the terapist. We both agree that on the first 1-2 months Dzaki's progress was really good, starting sleeping with normal hours, starting eye contact and recognise people, calling "mama" and "papa".

But the next following 3 months are really hard. Dzaki started to cry and cry and cry during tha whole 1 hour session. We had tried to change the session hour and caretaker, but seems did not work. Dzaki even refused to walk in to the therapy room.

So we both agree to give a "break", and continuing the fun homework (horse riding, hiking, swimming). Dzaki is allowed to go to the theraphy centre once a week, but just for playing with caretaker (mama and papa only) and mix with other participants, not for individual theraphy.

We hope that this will help Dzaki to reduce anxienty and boredom.

Oh Dzaki still hug me, kiss me (oh yesss!!!!!!!!!!!!!), call "mama", "papa", and sometimes make a little eye contact.
