9-12-11 Go Fish!

The Neuro doc came in and wanted to work in his room today. She had Go Fish with her, so dad helped Isaac hold his cards (HUGE) while they played. Ok, dad "consulted" on the game, helping Isaac play so the doc didn't have to pretend not to know what he had. lol

The game progressed, and I could see some of the issues he currently has with tasks. He did very well organizing the cards. He thought the number 9 was "bowl", but after correction he started using the proper term. Staying on task was difficult, and remembering the phrases

He DID win, though!

Later his older brother Chris, who drove up from Austin with his 3yo daughter yesterday, met Jackie at the facility. He was able to see Isaac's interaction level and take comfort in his progression. We ordered in, ate and watched the umpteen-millionth episode of the NCIS marathon. Child Life checked out a Wii for his room, and he got to play Mario (a 3D version).  I'm not sure if he was doing any good, but he was having fun with it.

He does not have to "WIN" to do good. Having fun is a GREAT idea. Remember, "A merry heart doeth good like a medicine." PROVERBS 17:22
