A Little About CJ
We are the Colliers, Jim, Mary and Christopher
(CJ). We live in Iowa. Christopher is 3 years old. He was diagoised as
having down's syndrome. Cj was born with 4 holes in his heart and at the
age of 3 months he had open heart surgery. Surgery took place at
Childrens Hospital in St. Louis, Mo. We think that the Childrens Hospital
were the best. They worked fast and were one step ahead of anything that
could happen. They stayed on top of the whole situation.
Down's children have lots of ear infections
and upper respiratory infections. In Jan. the ENT, ear, nose and throat,
specialist put tubes in CJs ears. They sure have helped. I only wished
they would have done the tubes sooner.
CJ wears glasses. He has for about a year.
He has a stigmatism in both eyes and is now near and far sighted. The doctors
are hoping that the glasses will help with time.
We go regularly to the specialist dental
clinic. CJ was very slow at getting his teeth, he got his double teeth
first, k-9s were the last teeth to come in. But they are all in now!
One of his favorite foods to chomp down on is corn on the cob.
Cj gets speech, occupational, and physical
therapy. He also started preschool this April in a special needs classroom.
He loves to go to school. He also gets OT, PT, and Speech in his school.
Speech, is very slow for CJ. He is starting to talk some. It just takes
time. But we realize that God has given us a very special angel to love,
enjoy and encourage to do the very best he can.
