This weekend Zack has spent a large proportion of his time grinning like a Cheshire Cat. I don't know what he finds so amusing. It might be the fact that he is feeling better and getting over his cold, it might be that he is enjoying his new diet of blended food (he had a dairylea sandwich today) or may be it's because he gets to stay up late to watch X-Factor.
Whatever the reason it's brilliant. You don't even have to do anything to entertain him, we just look at him and he gives you the biggest gummy grin ever. He did this constantly from 3pm today until 9pm, then he had to go to bed. Hope he is as happy tomorrow. The big gummy grinning bear.
This isn't my blog, it's Zack's. Zack arrived here seven weeks early, he had no heartbeat and wasn't breathing. He suffered catastrophic damage to his brain, he has cerebral palsy, problems with his hearing, vision and feeding. Our lives are both challenging and extraordinary. He is a gift. I hope that for whatever reason you find yourself reading this blog it can go some way to help those in the same situation and some way to remove the cloak that covers parenting a child with disabilities.
