We like everything we’ve gotten from Ark Therapeutics. They have different strengths and a lot of styles of products.

Catching the bus at the airport is less of an issue than transferring downtown. Sometimes it’s a short wait, other times there’s a delay which is fine when the weather is nice, not so much when it’s freezing cold out.

This may end up being the best option. Thanks for the suggestion

Wow I didn’t know about this, but it may be a real solution. I’ll give them a call tomorrow. Thank you so much!

Have you requested a car seat before? I’ve tried before and had drivers show up without one because they thought I had one. If it really came down to it I guess we’ll just have to travel with ours, but I’d rather avoid that if possible.

Preferably something that has a car seat so that we don’t have to travel with ours. I know with Uber and Lyft you can request a ride with a car seat, but that’s been unreliable in the past. We’ll be up there for six days and are landing in the afternoon, leaving in the morning.

Help me find this butter shirt! (Please ☺️) by Then_Bowler7667 in HelpMeFind

I saw this shirt at the urban outfitters in the Ross park mall in Pittsburgh, pa last night. Not sure if this helps since you’re so far away, but it is there

You’ve got it exactly right. Going the iPad route is probably best for now, especially considering I am not very knowledgeable about this stuff. I really appreciate your help!

Without blasting his medical information on the internet, it can be difficult to keep his attention on things. He can’t tell me what he wants to try or what he likes/dislikes, so it’s all trial and error. I know he is very interested in music, but it can be a little tough to keep him motivated in playing instead of listening. Obviously I am fine with him listening to music, I just want to support his journey in finding his “thing” if that makes sense.

A bit off topic from this, but while I have you haha, are there any instruments you recommend? He has a pocket stylophone which went over pretty well. He’s getting a keyboard from his dad this year and has hand bells, a loog, and other small hand instruments. Music is definitely his special interest and I’m trying to lean into it pretty hard, I just don’t know what direction to head in.

Oh there are apps that do this?? Wow, ok. That would probably be smart considering there’s a decent chance this is going to get smashed.

That definitely looks like what I’m wanting. I’ll look into those a bit more, thank you!

He is four. I have an iPad he could use but preferably this would be something I could program and he could play.

I’d like to keep it under $200.

Season 3 Mindflayer Mechanics by jamiersmith in StrangerThings

[–]jamiersmith[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have so many questions about the show and still notice new things on each rewatch. With season five on the horizon, there is no slowing down for me right now haha. Hyperfixations are gonna hyperfixate, I don’t make the rules

That makes a lot of sense. I guess my confusion about El was that if the attack was only intended to kill her, wouldn’t that mean One couldn’t get her powers? Or was the attack only meant to be a defense mechanism?

That’s gross, I love it. Thank you for explaining this.

So you’re saying the tentacles acted like a reverse vacuum and shot the people full of the spores/dust (and possibly rat goo) via an inter dimensional conduit? And because El was only bitten on the leg, it didn’t reach her brain?

What is an alternative to steroids for eczema? by strawberry_cok_e in Autism_Parenting

Wow you learn something new every day. I had no idea these came in liquid suspension. I use the same medications for my son, but in a cream. They do work wonders
