the best way to learn a language is to become immersed in it. Ideally you would spend time in a place where lots of people speak spanish such as miami and by need you would start speaking it. Since, that is not feasible my advice is to do the next best thing. Practicing verb conjugations and...

welcome to south florida! my only request is not to become a dade county hater (miami) :( we'll even speak to you in english if you dare to make the trip south if you are nice enough ;)

Being in a shaded area could be one factor that contributes to preventing seizures. I understand that the GAC allows this. Many kids with seizures get them more frequently when they are exposed to bright sun and excessive heat. This is why many of the buses that transport disabled kids are...

There is no restriction on flying with crutches. As a PT and someone who has trained many people to use crutches, I would suggest trying to rent or buy lofstrand (forearm crutches). They are much more comfortable and it is easier to maneuver them in a crowd. I've never understood why...

thank you all! i understand the dinig plan now. I'm very excited to try all of the restaurants :)

My family and I are AP holders and we are visiting disney during the free dining. For this reason we bought one day tickets to qualify for it. I have an aunt who is coming with us and she does not have an ap. Can she use our one day tickets to get into the park since we don't need...

i have a little confusion about this... I just reserved my package for 3 nights and 4 days and the woman told me that i only had the free dining for 3 days . So, on the day we check out we don't have free dining? i'm very confused... thanks to anyone that can clarify this.

As a pediatric PT , my advice is to take her to PT as your MD suggested. The therapist will perform an evaulation and then device a clinical plan for her. Her therapy will consist of exercises and activities that focus on strengthening her muscle tone and increasing muscle endurance...

I know we are in a disney board but it's italy hands down!! You have already been to disney and might not have a chance to visit italy in a while or maybe never..... Italy is by far my favorite place to visit. I was there for a month last year and never grew tired of it. Italy is 100 billion...

Hey, fellow therapist!! I guess you work in the school system? or do you just take your summers off? I work in pediatric home health and the need for therapists is out of control. My company has kids in waiting lists for therapists that are 40-50 names long sometimes. I could work all day ...

I completely agree! kids and parents need to really think through what they want out of a career, both in pay and personal satisfaction before they commit to college . Like it's been illustrated in this thread, a college degree doesn't necessarily guarantee a good paying job. I know many...

I don't own a vespa but rode one in a small town in italy once. It was the most fun i ever had :) I say go for it! lots of people are getting scooters now, at least here in my hometown

I guess we can't be too picky! like another poster said, what disney pays is so little that your pool of applicants is going to be reduced somewhat. I love disney but i wish they would pay their employees a bit more.

I love the schoolbread from the norway bakery in epcot, yummm I also love churros but not that excited about them since i can get them anywhere here in miami

lol! that pic above is hilarious! I like most of the face characters , i especially think that peter pan looks very much like the character and seems to always be in character. I did see a very caucasian pocahontas last time though, i said to my sister, she's not suppossed to be a white...

hey i can deff relate to you! I had super long hair for the longest time and decided to cut it very short in prep for my european backpacking trip last year. Well i just chopped it all off in this expensive salon, they gave me the cutest cut! Like you my hair was also donated to cancer...

haha! why does it weird you out?? is it due to the movie hostel?? all my friends bug me ever since that came out cuz they know i love hostels ;) Like i stated before you don't have to necessarily stay in a dorm room, hostels have private rooms usually only one or two though, these rooms are...

I was just going to suggest florence to you! why if you have to go there don't you go then?? I have been to florence three times and would go again in a heartbeat, IMHO it is more romantic than paris, i find paris beautiful but a little on the cold, somber side, again that's just me. Florence...

Thanks for the info SueM :) I'm very interested in this topic since I often get asked questions about make a wish in my practice. Like I stated before i've seen many kids get their wish with conditions that are not life threatening per se. These kids have great disabilities though. I've often...
