[QUOTE="1 Day At a Time, post: 76000, member: 3704"] Occupational Therapist (OT)'s are just magical! I work closely with several of them on my job and their observations and solutions for problems are nothing short of awesome... We have been so very pleased with the Occupational Therapist (OT) that works with difficult child. I highly recommend them. It's funny how things change. We had to fight, fight, fight for keyboard use for difficult child in the early years. Now, when he gets a little lazy about using it his teachers e-mail me and say - Please have difficult child use his keyboard!!!! by the way, with worksheets he scans them as a document and types his answers below the scanned sheet. He uses a PDA with a little folding portable keyboard in classes. It seems "normal" to him and cool to the other kids, so he likes it. difficult child used a keyboarding instruction program on the computer on his own when was in the first grade. We were shocked when he sat down at the computer one day and just started typing away. It's been the keyboard for him since that time. His handwriting (if you can call it that) is just chicken scratching. I had to chuckle Marg when you suggested becoming a doctor!!! All of our docs at our HMO recently moved to a paperless system and they all must use the computer. It's kind of funny to see some of them struggle with the keyboard [img]:smile:[/img] [/QUOTE]
