[tri-med] Re: Jude/bone density studies

we have no grounds to be mad as we can pay privately for insurance.  we now
have kam in a 9 week session of hippotherapy as the reg pt was now making
any progress.  she loves the horse.  mona has met kam and those who have met
her know the for a profoundly disabled child she has a better quality of
life than most.

her iep is monday.  i had a rpre-mtg with the pt/ot thurs.  they said i
would not be getting a social worker eval.  when i asked why they said it
was to just make sure the kid was clean and fed.  kammie is sooooo spoiled
compared to her peers at the special needs only school.

i just found out she has been accepted to a 6 and 7 yr old summer day camp.
they will hire an aid to help her participate in camp.  i will probably only
send her 3 days a week.  she will love it tho.
