My Blog's

My blog which was initially dedicated to art is now dedicated to my son's progress.But i 'm sure in time i will start some of my hobbies.I intend to teach paper quilling to Faheem when he grows older...i think paper quilling really tests a persons patience and dexterity.

Today Faheem did something very interesting...We were in the car ,and a beggar lady came with a baby.Faheem immediately tried to open my bag,i wondered why,he kept looking at the beggar and it clicked he wanted to give the lady some money.I asked him "do u want to give money to the beggar?"And he pointed out to to the baby she was carrying and said 'baby'.I took out some money and immediately he gave the money.It made me so proud...i hope i read him correctly(smile)

Meanwhile the battle with Adnan(his cousin)still persists.The therapist said its a good thing.He is connecting...i allow it.In the shop ,there is koko who always snatches his toys,and faheem immediately tries to snatch it back and runs after him

I hear more words coming out to..alhamdullilah.Pls Allah make him better soon...Amiiiiin

ALHAMDULLILAH

Alhamdullilah...faheem can point so well now.I hv been waiting soo long for this..So many words are coming out.Bbaby,nenek,kai,mamu,chachu,...and he can say mama...finally.He loves to ply in side the blanket with me and his dad.The therapist says that his facial expressions are wonderful,but the crying sessions hv not seized unfortunately.The floortime has worked alittle,i press on it some more.The other i asked what is the lady in the picture doing ...he rightfully said..bobo(that really tickled me).hE pointed to the book store and said book,book which such glee.And the way he studies the picture in the money note....is hilarious.When chachu asked him who is the man in the pic he answered 'daddy'.TodaY while drinking milk his kai coughed,he immediately started to cough n said kai...Faheem i can't wait for u to talk to me ....i love dear.

gETTing better

Faheem is out of the cold>>>i am so bummed out right now.I am so confused on how to deal with my baby>I know i hv to take it easy,but i want him to become better.I can more words now....but the rest is jst baby language.For the past 2 weeks he is eagerly showing me things ...the other day he was showing me the puzzle that he was trying to fix(smile).but on a sad note,faheem is still crying in his therapies.......this is worrying me so much,n now he is more attached to me then ever.He would almost not go to any one...even his father,maybe because his father has withdrawn from the pic...he has so much going on for him.Its ok...he will always have me.Maybe i should move to my parents house....Maybe i will get the support that i need.

Sometimes i feel faheem n i are two lonely people...no wonder faheem sometimes slips into his own world...i do it too,in my hobbies,in my thoughts.I will try to expose Faheem to as many things as i can,n to learn to handle stress well...because thats his problem...and hopefully he will be able to talk and live like a normal person.I have to be there for my angel.

well...faheem not been feeling too good

aduuuhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!My poor faheem has not been feeling too well lately.I think i over worked him...taking him to  too many places ,thats me..always enforcing n not giving him a time of day to relax.I just thought that since his supplements were doing wonders for his stamina ..he could cope.I guess i keep forgetting he is just 2.A new word was introduced today...dada and bye bye.He uses it so well especially if he wants to get rid of his therapists.Today i could have sworn i heard him say Dibo a couple of time.He led me downstairs to switch on the tv afterthat.I don't think it was rexflex speech.It has put a smile on my face,since today was not such a gd day to begin with.I took Faheem to Anakku today jst to play...turns out his friend who has pdd nos has started to speak so many words effortlessly ...but i have to be hopefull.i hv bought a book regarding floortime.It cost a fortune .I have to try to implement it on Faheem.

wENT TO moNaS FOR HIKING

It was a fairly good day to day..I took Faheem out to Monas,it was late in the afternoon..but better late than never.I allowe him to take me where HE wanted this time.But i managed to play hide and seek..poor baby fell down,but it was on wet mud.He got all dirty,but was fine after that.I think the trip went ok.

It really built up his appetite.By the time he got home,he was ready to eat what ever i offered him,of course he had to eat while reading all the logos in the newspaper and scribbling on them.While scribbling mum in law was secretly annoyed because his scribbling moved on to the table...hehehe.He was so into having his kebabs on satay sticks,eager to have some more.

right after that had his supplements and went straight up stairs to our room to play with rice and fix his puzzles.It was the first time he was able to tell me where the the puzzles were placed...i was so (n still am) so happy.Because of that i allowed him to mess up the whole bed with rice.

He was so energized today i took him horse riding as well.Of he had to cry first but then he was riding like an equestrian...alright equestrian in the making(years of training to go) .All this from a trip to monas????????i should bring him more often then.

I hope the therapy in anakku goes well tomorrow..i think i will bring his bowl of rice for the other kids to play as well.

long time....

long time..

been a long time since i hv added anything in this blog...been so busy

my son wa diagnosed with pdd-nos...a type of autism few months before he turned two.It broke my heart into pieces......I use to cry everyday wondering why?I just couldn't accept it.My Faheem seemed so smart.I thought he was jst a timid child....turned out it is something more.Now at 29 months he is showing improvements...Now my questions are how to help him.He is going to all the theapies ..horse riding,hiking,Sensory Integration,Occupation and speech.I want to do Floortime with him..but i have to just learn how to.His diet his special CFGF free.My POOR BABY..His eagerness to try new food is so immense,but i try my best to compensate..now he wants to eat everything on satay sticks..hmm..am going to do just that.

The Trans TV crew and me

The renowned reporter Ari and camera man Ben from the Trans TV station came to the house to cover one of the paper quilling sessions with the kids.They came on a short notice so i had little time to prepare.Thank God for Sam my Quilling godmother who helped me set up.Thank you so much Sam.It was a long 3 hours ,but not a peep of complaint from the little ones.They were only to happy to go on quilling until the camera man said he had enough.Later, it was pizza time for every one .Hope everyone got a piece.
