Hi families!
I will say that life here is never dull.
For those of you who have known me and my baby boy for a while now you will know he has some unique medical challenges.

We got a call today for surgery tomorrow. It’s risky for a child with Boston’s conditions and his repetitive behaviours. And his sensory profile. But it’s necessary as this condition will not fix itself and there are no alternatives to treating it.

So my little love and I are back in hospital tomorrow for a few days. I’m praying intensely that this goes to plan. And I am grateful now we have a base line of anaesthetics and sedatives that will be able to keep him chill enough to stay in the hospital and recover there.

Please be patient with me responding to texts and emails. And tomorrow afternoon I’ll be offline for a while - when he’s under I can barely think straight.

But Alannah has your backs - and she will do whatever is possible while I’m out.

See you all on the other side of this.
And secretly, I’m looking forward to 2026 when this is all fixed and we have a clearer year!

Transport training!!! Love this group!!!
These guys get to explore the community using public transport. They learn so much with this!
Designed by our counsellor to promote good choices, keeping our calm, tolerating others, respecting social rules, following safety instructions, managing big feelings, and also to learn how to use transport 😉 - our transport training kiddos get to explore the community, play, engage, participate in transport processes from young ages so that it’s not a big deal when they’re an adult having to go to work, study, the city…. Anywhere really.
Prepare them for the real world. We will help you.

Basketball group: it’s not just about the basketball. Our after school groups are about creating healthy habits, exploring exercise, creating a team mindset, learning to communicate and interact and try something different safely. Sometimes basketball turns into baseball. Sometimes soccer. Sometimes it becomes learning to use the public gym equipment. Why?
So our kids can recognise that there is opportunity for fun exercise in the big world. And so they have less fear, anxiety and hesitation to try it as they grow and explore on their own.
Sensory exposure and anxiety reduction start early. It’s what we do.
Supporting our neurodiverse kiddos to learn to cope in the community is all part of the program.

Week 1 & 2 of school holiday programs are out now!

If you are new to our centre we encourage you to come a week or 2 before the holidays to meet the other children and settle in. The holidays are big days sometimes, and we all do better when we are a bit familiar :)

Tuesday basketball notice:

Hi Parents, if today’s heat repeats tomorrow we are not going to take the crew out into the 35+degree heat. Rather, send their swimmers and we will wind them down in the pool and play some water ball games :)

If it’s raining and cold (one weather station said 8-21 degrees!!!!) then we will do indoor activities with underpinning ball skills too.

Likelihood of tomorrow’s group being indoors = high

We made it to the ward!!!!!! Yay!!!! A step closer to going home!!!!

Lots to work on, some normal daily living skills to re-learn and adopt again, and a revisit of leaving the environment anxiety which I probably wasn’t prepared for but it makes sense, but such an improvement since the tubes came out!!!

Tomorrow marks 2 very unplanned hospital weeks - not sure when we can come home but we are closer now than we were yesterday.

The PICU team are amazing - excellent doctors and nurses, and so willing to work with my boy’s wiring. If you have a QCH admission coming up reach out, I have some good tips for you which you may now have come across yet.

A little Boston update:

After 10 days of ICU, 2 intubations and 2 extubations we are finally at a point where considering a transfer to a ward is possible.

He didn’t sleep for over 30hrs in the lead up to and following extubation #2, but the doctors and nurses have been amazing here in keeping all the interventions as minimised and considered as they possibly can.

Finally he fell asleep having our first proper cuddle in 12 days. So we are not moving.

Fingers crossed we can transfer this afternoon. It all depends on his progress breathing wise - we are still on high flow O2.

Sending love and gratitude out to my family who have supported us, Alannah and the team, and Dan. And to all of you for sending your thoughts and prayers.

The close of day 6 in ICU my love, Day 6.

Lung secretions, more X-rays, test after test. Antibiotics. Physio. A tube move, then bath.

And a lovely music therapist who sang Adele songs to him while he was asleep.

Tomorrow we have been in an ICU for a week. And it’s so scary because I have one of the healthier children in here.

Thanks goes out to Alannah who just picked up why I have had to drop.

My mom and dad and sister who came the moment this all went south, and Dan who shows up when it matters.

It’s been 10 days since this all began. The very day flu just gets a whole lot worse when there’s complex neurological disabilities at play.
