(HBOT 38) Great Annual Physical Visit

Jonathan and Vanessa had their physical evaluation today. The Dr. said that they both looked good. She was very impressed with Jonathan. He was able to successfully complete the entire preschool screening test that totally was unable to do last year, and he overall looked very good to her. She noticed how his muscle tone is better, his motor planning, his coordination, etc. Even his speech (although he spoke little). And he has absolutely no sensory problems today. His cholesterol and CBC were excellent. She was very happy to see how healthy he looked. I have to say that I believe it is due to Yasko's supplements. Vanessa on the other hand showed a bit of anemia. The doctor believes it might be due to the amount of milk she drinks a day (about 36 oz). So she told us to restrict the milk to no more than 20 oz. And her cholesterol was 20 points higher than Jonathan's.

HBOT Day 38

Jonathan did really well today. Inside the chamber, the movie that they had on today was the magical schoolbus. Jonathan knew what it was (probably from daycare) and really enjoyed the show. He followed the plot closely and kept commenting to me what was going on. Again, he continued to be very sweet, loving, emotional.

We went to Joe's Crab today again and he didn't want to play with the other kids as usual, but h actively participated in Vanessa birthday celebration and played with a couple of toys. No phones, no electronic toys. After he finished dinner, he did join the other kids. Great to see that.

When we got home, he initiated play with Vanessa: hide and seek. It was really cute to watch them. Vanessa got tired after 4 times and started playing with her dolls. Jonathan decided to play with his wackamo toy. I joined him for a bit. Then they played with horses around the house. We took them to bed and he was in a very good mood.

He was quite conversational today. Always about the stuff he likes and he also asked a lot of questions. The teacher sent a note saying that today for the first time, when she said "all kids with blue pants move forward", he looked at his pants, and when realized that he had blue pants, he moved forward. They have been working on this all year.
