Rohan recovered from Bad stomach virus
Rohan was sick for about more than a week. He had a bad stomach virus, it drained out his energy and for us it was step back with him. I had another son-rise session with Rohan. In this session Rohan was having difficult time in focusing on one game or even sitting down with me.
He will get up shake his hands in the air and come back to me.. He was into playing with garbage truck. .So I joined him, Though he immediately looked at me. I had some empty cereal cardboxes with me.We started making castle, but within couple of minutes he told me "Castle All Done". And started driving his Lego garbage trucks. I joined him. He looked at me and asked me to make School bus. I started making Yellow school bus, He asked me to make Firetruck,Helicopter with it.He was making his demands very quickly and was not able to sit and concentrate on one thing.
I asked Rohan, do you want to sit on chair. He said "No". At one point he did come to me and sat down with me to cut the paper to make wheels for the Yellow school bus. Overall he was answering my questions, but while busy with his stimming. So I joined him couple of times , even though he looked at me immediately as I joined him. He made his demand but immediately was onto something else.

Rohan and I had fun with playdough,crayons and stickers
Rohan and I had another son-rise session. He quickly came to me in the play-room and asked me to open the Lego box. He got the car out of the Lego box and put Lego man inside the car. He pointed at the man and told me "Man". He started driving the car.
I joined in his stimming with a piece of Lego. He quickly looked at me and made an eye contact. I asked him if we can make house for the animals. I waited for his response and started making Lego Zoo. In between asked him to help me by giving me names of various animals, Asking him if I can place them in the zoo.... Rohan also stacked 2 blocks.
Now he asked me to make house out of the play-dough. I asked him again to come at the table. He kept on asking me to make a big house. I made house from play dough and we played with play dough for another 20 minutes.
He came down to the floor. I took the sticker pack out and gave him stickers for eyes,nose,moustache,ears,hat,earrings to stick them on the white chart paper. He got confused with eye-brow and moustache ones .....
He now asked me to make ice-cream truck from play-dough. So I made ice-cream truck out of play-dough but on the paper. I asked him which ice-cream he wants in the truck, He told me "Blueberry", So I made a cone with ice-cream. I asked him to color. He scribbled once . I made some more ice-cream cones and asked him to color. He will scribble once on each of them and will gently throw the crayon away.
In between he also used scissor to cut the ice-cream cone. He was able to cut-through one of the sides of cone very nicely following the line, even though I helped him by holding onto paper.
Over all it was an very interactive and fun-session. It is a long journey .....but Rohan has come long way from the first son-rise session.

Rohan is into play-dough - Make a House
I had my another SON-RISE session with Rohan. I went inside the son-rise room again with Lego Box . He is still interested in playing with Play-dough. As soon as I entered the room, He again asked me to "Make House". This time I asked him "Can I make a house for animals from Lego ? I waited for his response, Meanwhile I quickly started building blocks from Lego to get his interest.
Rohan likes "Open" and "Close" concept. So I made a gate out of Lego and he was trying to drive his Lego car while the gate was open. If gate was Closed he will take the Lego car above the gate. I asked him in between to stack the Lego Blocks for me. He did 2 of them and went away to stimming. I joined him also.
He suddenly noticed me while stimming and this time asked me to Make House from Play-dough. I asked Rohan, Can you sit on chair, I will make house from play-dough on the Table. He did listened and sat on the chair. This time I grabbed the box of play-dough, I will open the box and ask him to stretch the play-dough out for me (Rohan has very weak core strength, He has been going through Occupational and Physical therapies for that). I had to pull the tip from Play-dough mold out for him to stretch it. He will stretch little pieces of play-dough for me and hand it to me.
We started making house from the play-dough. He asked me to make garage,road and chimney. In between I will ask him questions. He was also driving his car on the Road that I made from Play-dough. We spend more than 25 minutes in this game.

Phase II - Working on Getting better eyecontact, interaction span and clear words
I had my another SON-RISE session with Rohan. I went inside the son-rise room with Lego Box for R. He is nowadays interested in playing with Play-dough. As soon as I entered the room, He asked me to "Make House". I asked him Big or Small house. He told me Big House. I started making House for him, He asked me to Make Roof, Chimney. Rohan tried to say words. But from past sessions it feels like, he has been asking me to play the same game and uses same set of words.
At certain point he was just saying same words. At some point in between session he was saying something, but I could not understand it. And when I did try to do what he was asking me to do, He will say some other word. It felt like he was either getting little frustrated, as I was not able to get what he wanted or he was getting bored. So I asked Rohan "Are you mad?", He did not gave me any response.
I took my Lego blocks out and made a Door out of it. I was showing him "Open" , "Close". I drove My Lego car inside the Door. Rohan came to me with his car, and took my car in hand and kind of threw it away . He wanted his car to go inside the door and this time he seemed Happier. I asked him "Are you Happy?", This time he answered me "Yes".
I tried to play Lego with him, but he will say "Lego", but was not interested in Lego. So I made Zoo out of Lego and asked him ? Can we put Lion in the zoo, He said "Yes". I asked him same question for couple of other animals and he did let me put them inside the zoo.
After that he suddenly broke the Lego zoo,And told me "Make house play-dough", So I told him, lets make house on the table and you sit on chair. And he did sat down on the chair.I started making house, I made a road to the door using Lego. He was playing very well with me this time.
He made better eye contact with me while sitting on chair and playing with play-dough.
We all know it is a long road, but atleast a start !!

March 18 and 2013 - Rohan tries to say words
Hello Everyone, it has been while since I posted anything on my blog. Rohan finally trying to say a few words. We are still going on with our Son-rise sessions.
Rohan makes better eye contact and interacts in much better way with us. Rohan finally can speak my name though with no "R" in it, which is lot more than I can expect.
We are still going strong with son-rise sessions. Rohan still receives NAET therapies and is on GFCF diets.
It is a long way to go, but looks like finally we can see that ray of light to follow this long journey.
I will try to make more regular posts.
We are always looking for volunteers, so please come and join and change a child's destiny !!
