My strong boy never ceases to amaze me.
Today Thomas had a botox injection appointment. He received six injections in each leg. I laid him across my lap on his belly to get the injections. It was over within thirty seconds from when it began. He never cried, never whined, squirmed a little, but was otherwise such a big strong boy. When it was over I sat him up on my lap and he looked at the doctor, clapped, and when the doctor clapped back he gave him a big ol' grin.
He really is an amazing little boy.
About Me
- Mom Of Thomas
- United States
- Thomas is my son who happens to have cerebral palsy. He is, in my opinion, more on the mildly affected side. He can crawl, sit on his knees, and laugh like a madman. He uses a walker to walk when his legs will cooperate. He cannot talk, sit on his bottom without falling over, or do a lot of the basic things most of us take for granted in life. He is, however, the light of my life and my reason for existing. He doesn’t know he has cerebral palsy. He doesn’t know there are things out there others are doing that he cannot. He does know that little brothers were put on this earth as a form of torture, that dum dum suckers are absolutely the best food on the planet, and that laughter is in fact the best medicine.

Thomas is a very brave boy! My son has had several sets of botox injections in the inner thigh area and hamstrings and it was performed as an out-patient with sedation - an all day event every few months. I hope you will reap great benefits from the procedure!
Awesome for Thomas and much easier on Mom!
