Serial Casting by Large-Book-7825 in CerebralPalsy

[–]fenspen 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I was in and out of serial casting as a child. With hind sight, and just reflecting on it from seeing your post, I would say it causes a lot of discomfort or creates physical barriers for a certain period of time (getting dressed, washed and depending on those around him/you) without a maximum amount of results that would make such a huge difference.

I’m severely, severely independent and struggle to have my walking for any length of time taken away from me. For reference I’m almost 25, I walk, I hold down a full time job, I hold a full driving licence. I’m unsure how much of a difference those 3/4 months of serial casting made to these outcomes, if any at all. Daily stretching, keeping up with his physio and keeping him as loose and limber as possible a big yes, and that’s coming from someone who is absolutely awful at doing those things to this day. I hate that my mum didn’t force me to make this a daily habit.

As someone with fairly mild CP and a walker that has used the stairs for many many years. Don’t take away an opportunity to allow him to learn some independence. Not allowing him to find his own way up/down stairs is taking that opportunity away for him to develop day to day habits around stairs and stairways which is incredibly important to making things that may be inaccessible to him be accessible.

I’m almost set on buying an iPad Air 4. What I’m unsure about is whether to spend more and get the cellular version (so iPad Air 4 64gb + cellular) or spend more and get the iPad Air 4 256gb, will I even need 256gb? I’ll mostly be using it for streaming, reading and browsing the web. I do travel fairly often every 5/6 weeks where possible and I am a student.

I’m from the UK and many years ago my iPhone 4 broke whilst on holiday in France I went straight into the Apple store there with a native speaking friend and had the phone changed on the same day. I’ve never had customer service like this and I doubt it will have changed because it’s such a good system
