My ds just had his evual with his specialist and he would like us to see a physical therpist for a car seat fitting. Ds is a new 8 yrs, 52", 64#, mostly legs. He is currently in a briatx husky but his days are numbered. He has been very happy in the husky, but he tends to slump and lay against teh harness. He really wants a booster and I think he could pull off very short rides under the right conditions, but it would be alot for him physcially.
I would like input on how to proceed, I worry that the pt's around here will not be up on the best safety. I have seen what other children ride in and it therapy and it is scary. There was one ped specialist that was a tech and super on top of things, but she moved to CO.
I have been thinking of the roosevelt or the monza. He likes the look of the monza.
He has long skinny legs that tend to go numb, which freaks him out. He is in the center of a 2007 toyota prius so he has support for his feet which seems to help, but he still has some issues. The radian really bugged him and he had apnea issues in it.
We have a rstv which he has trouble leaning against as well and is not great for him sleeping which he still does a lot of. That and it would drive me crazy on a day to day basis.
Anyone know if there is a special needs tech in the southern portion of VA or there about? Any experience with dealing with medicaid paying some of the bill?
TIA
