Our Brain Balance Journey: Movie Night!

Movie Night!

I'm posting this on my phone since my computer is our only "tv". Brody and Hazel were begging to have a movie night. Since they are only allowed 30 minutes of screen time (tv, computer, video games, etc) per day- then they are using their time for the whole weekend to watch a movie tonight with Mama. For some reason I started telling them about Newsies and they were so interested and begged me to watch it with them. I LOVE this movie and am so glad the kids are liking it. I literally don't think that one thing has happened in the movie without asking a question about it. Examples: Why don't they have moms and dads? Why do they sell papers? Why did he jump on that? Why are they dancing and singing at the same time? It Is so cute and he totally did NOT get it from me ;)

I have almost fallen asleep 25 times and Hazel is asleep now. Bro is still up asking 1000 questions. I figured I should at least post something in case I fall asleep!

I will for sure post updates this weekend as I am taking it easy and just playing with the kids and having fun! (okay and cleaning up and laundry and cooking) but just taking it a tiny bit easier than usual :)

Night!

Please try to take it easy. You really do deserve a break of some kind.

Remember when we had crushes on Patch and Mush! I still can't handle the cowboy song in the alley, but other than that I love it!

What is Brain Balance?

Brain Balance Achievement Centers offer the Brain Balance Program ® in 47 nationwide locations. The Brain Balance Program® is an individualized and comprehensive approach to helping children with neurobehavioral and learning difficulties surmount their unique challenges.

This proprietary, non-medical program has been successful in helping hundreds of children reach their physical, social/behavioral health and academic potential. We work with children who suffer with ADD/ADHD, Dyslexia, Tourette’s, Asperger’s and Autism Spectrum Disorders.

Our UPDATED Story!

We have made the hard decision to split our family up temporarily so that our boys can attend the Balance Center to treat their Autism, ADHD, etc. There are no centers near us so the three kids and I moved across the country leaving my husband home working extremely hard to support us on this journey. We will be here at least 6 months and after that we don't know, but we do know that this is the beginning of a journey that will change our lives forever.

The purpose of this blog is for me to document every last detail of our journey so that I will never forget it and so that I can track their progress day by day. It is also to keep friends and family updated of how we are doing. I decided to keep last names and locations private but leave the Blog open so that anyone that is searching for answers or information on the Brain Balance program can read it and make comments/ask questions. Please feel free to pass the link on to anyone you know that has a child affected by one of the disorders listed above.

UPDATE:
We are back home from our session at Brain Balance and the boys both made incredible gains. (Read below for their updates). We are now on a new journey! We are opening a Brain Balance Center in Southern Utah and then expanding into Northern Utah shortly after. We have a lot of work to do, but it is so rewarding. Our boys will be continuing in the program until they have meet all of their goals and no longer have a "functional disconnection". (Meaning, no more autism/ADHD/Sensory disorders) I will continue to post as often as possible and keep you updated on our family, the progress that the boys are making as well as the progress of our center. It is so exciting and the most amazing opportunity that we have to take the miracles that we have witnessed with Brain Balance and give them to other families.
