至成长岁月

9/8/2016

          每对父母都希望自己的孩子能够健康快乐地成长,但现实与理想总是对立的。

          晨晨在两岁时始终都没有开口叫过妈妈。那时我已经有点担心,但家中的长辈总说:“男孩总是比女孩迟些说话,没什么大不了。”也许是自欺欺人吧!就这样耽误了最佳的黄金治疗期。

           终于,晨晨被诊断出得了自闭症。于是,我们决定一边送他去幼稚园,一边去做语言障碍矫正。就在我们觉得一切就要有转机的时候,晨晨的各种问题也接踵而来。如:不能跟小朋友友善地沟通,不能安静地坐在课室里听老师上课,有时还会跟小朋友发生肢体冲突……..。

           种种的问题让我们也变得手足无措,这时通过朋友的介绍,我们来到了SI World。在Mr. Wong的讲解中,我们明白了原来孩子还需要更多的辅助,而且治疗的时间也会相应地长一些。好多父母的误区是一直都认为只要孩子来到中心,不用多久就可以变成一个正常普通的孩子。
         
​          虽然现在的晨晨还是有这样那样的问题,但看着他一天比一天可爱,一天比一天进步,这一切都很值得。虽然在外人眼中他还是一个有点特殊的孩子,有的人甚至还会误解特殊就是智商问题,但这些都不重要。我相信总有一天,晨晨也会跟同龄的孩子一样,有自己的朋友,有自己的生活。

To The Growth

          Parents always hope that their children can grow up healthily and happily. Nonetheless, reality is always the opposite of the ideal.

          Chen Chen still did not call me “mummy” even when he approached two years old. This made me feel a bit worried, but the elderly in my family kept telling me that “boys are usually slower in learning to speak than girls do, so there is nothing to worry about”. Perhaps this is what we called self-deceiving. And because of this, we missed out the golden timing for treatment for Chen Chen.

        As the result came out, Chen Chen was diagnosed with Autism. Thereupon we decided to send him to kindergarten and to do speech therapy on the other hand. Right when we thought that everything was going to get better, more and more of Chen Chen‟s problems raised our concerns. For example, he could not communicate well with his peers, he was unable to sit still to listen to teachings in class, and sometimes he even fought with his peers.

           We felt so hopeless about all these until we got to know about SI World from our friends. After listening to Mr. Wong‟s explanation, we came to understand that children actually need more assistance; therefore longer treatment period is needed as well. Lots of parents are mistaken that children will get better very soon once they are sent for treatment.

          Although Chen Chen is still having all these problems, it is worthwhile to see him getting better and cuter. To me, it does not matter if others see him as a special child or misunderstand that “special” is related to IQ‟s problems. Because I believe one day, Chen Chen will be the same as his peers, who will have his own friends and life.

Development of Understanding & Independency

          My son, Fong Yu Chen is a dyslexic child. Therefore, I brought him to consult the psychologist, Dr. Rajini when he was 3.5 years old. According to Dr. Rajini, even though my son was 3.5 years old, but his mental age was only around one year old. After that, I brought him to attend sensory integration (SI) treatment. During the consultation with Dr. Rajini, she said that Yu Chen’s condition had little improvement. Until two years ago, when Yu Chen was 5 years old, I was introduced by my aunt to SI World for SI treatment. Half a year later, I brought him to meet with Dr. Rajini again. In Dr. Rajini’s opinion, Yu Chen’s attention, memory, and thinking abilities had improved. Initially, my son only attended two classes per week in SI World, but I added one more class for him because he had improved a lot in SI World.

            My son is now 7 years old. Dr. Rajini said that Yu Chen’s attention and memory have improved. He is now at the level of 5.5 years old. Before Yu Chen joined SI World, he was not able to follow instructions and he did not know how to identify the things that are dangerous. Now, he understands what I say and he is able to follow instructions. For example, when I tell him that he will be caught by bad people if he runs around, he is able to listen to me and stop running. Besides that, Yu Chen loves  iced water and candy very much. But there was one time when he was sick, his father told him that drinking iced water will worsen his condition and eating too much candy will lead to tooth decay. After listening to his father, Yu Chen reduced the intake of iced water and candy. Sometimes, he is even able to wash his own dishes after he has finished his meal. I am so happy to see his improvements.
​
            I would like to thank the therapists in SI World for their hard work, patience, and the help they have given to me. I am so thankful to my aunt for recommending my son to SI World.

学会明白和懂事

​          我的孩子洪宇辰是有学习障碍的孩子。因此,在他3岁半的时候,我带他去见了心理科医师,Dr. Rajini. Dr. Rajini说他虽然年龄是3岁半,但是他的思想只有1岁多的思想。之后,我们也有带他去做些感统治疗。直到4岁半宇辰(因为是在半年里见一次Dr. Rajini)见Dr. Rajini时,Dr. Rajini说宇辰的情况有少许的改善。

          直到他5岁那年,我是通过我的婶婶的介绍下来到SI World里做感统治疗。5岁半时宇辰又去见Dr. Rajini的时候,Dr. Rajini说宇辰的专注力,记忆力及思想能力皆有改善。我的孩子在SI World每个星期上两堂课进步很多,所以我多加一堂。从在去年年尾12月时见Dr. Rajini直到今年5月,过了接近半年的时间,Dr. Rajini说我的孩子现在7岁,但他的专注力和记忆力进步到了5岁半的程度。因此,在SI World接受治疗后,宇辰的情况改善了很多。

         以前的他是个不听讲听不明白指示的孩子,而且不懂什么是危险的事物。现在他都明白了。如: 我和他说如果你乱跑的话会给坏人抓去截断手脚,他明白后都不敢乱跑了。就算他爸爸牵着他的手时他见不到我他也会叫爸爸等一下,等到我过来后才一起走。此外,他喜欢喝冰水和吃糖果。有一次他咳嗽得很辛苦,他爸爸就告诉他喝冰水会咳嗽和吃糖果会长蛀牙。之后他也减少吃这些东西和少喝冰水了。现在有时吃完晚饭后他会自己洗碗碟。看到他这些改善,我真的很高兴。

         在这里,我要特别感谢SI World的各位治疗师们耐心的教导及帮助。我也非常感谢我的好婶婶把SI World介绍给我。婶婶,谢谢您!

Yong Kah Yean, 3½  year-old
Before
  • Delayed language & speech (language & speech remained at 1½ -2 years): able to speak only two-words phrases and kept repeating questions that others asked her

  • Poor eye-hand coordination: unable to perform buttoning or unbuttoning action and had difficulty wearing socks
  • Poor fine motor skills: resulted in difficulty in writing, always colored beyond the borders 
  • Lack of sense of danger

Picture

  • Now, she even knows how to negotiate with parents and talk back to parents sometimes!

Parent’s comment: After undergoing one-year-long treatment, together we have witnessed her improvement.  I am glad that we had made a wise decision by sending her to SI world, to go through the sensory integration therapy. Otherwise, she would have made no progress at all.

We would like to thank SI World and the therapists of their efforts and companionship along the way. Thank you!

家长感言:经过这一年多的治疗,她的进步大家是有目共睹的。很庆幸,当初做了一个正确的决定--那就是及时把她送进SI World做感统治疗。如果不是,她很可能还在原地踏步,不会有今天的进步。

最后要感谢SI World和它的一班治疗师。谢谢你们!

我亲爱的Timothy

14/2/2015

          我亲爱的Timothy 当年只有一岁半。当时他能说的字句远远少过小于他的表弟所能说的字句。他似乎沉醉于他自己的世界,也无法和身边的人很好地互动及交流。这些问题引起了为他注射疫苗的医生的关注,医生也因此为他作了一些简单的诊断,但在当时无法作出明确的结论。无论如何,医生劝我们给孩子半年的时间然后再观察他的情况有何进展或改变。 

          其实,让我最担心的不是他字句说得少那样芝麻绿豆的事,而是他无法好好地与别人互动。他成天只会哭,不善于表达到底什么东西让他不舒服或是哪一处弄伤了(究竟他是跌倒了还是被表弟咬伤了)。他时常不在状况内,也无法清楚地明白指示。他不知道如何与其他小朋友游戏,也不知如何分享及礼让。这些基本的互动技巧在他身上几乎不存在。他是个挺刻板的小孩,因此很难适应新的事物。不良的表达能力让情况难上加难。

My Timothy

3/2/2015

My Timothy My son, Timothy, was only 1½ year-old at that time. He spoke very few words as compared to his cousin, who was younger than him. He seemed to prefer staying in his own world and was not able to interact well with people around him. Our family doctor had raised his concern and ran some tests when we brought him for vaccination. But nothing conclusive had been established; anyway, the doctor advised us to give him another half a year time to see any changes or improvement on him in the future. 

Nonetheless, the thing that worried me the most was not the tiny problem such as spoken words; it was the bad behavior and bad social interaction that sparked my attention. He just knew how to cry all the time and was not able to express himself, for example, what was bothering him or where the pain was (whether he fell down or got bitten by his cousin). He was often very blurred about what was going on and could not understand verbal instruction. He did not know how to play with other kids, how to share with others and when to take turn in social interactions. These basic skills that were required in that kind of environment did not seem to develop well in my son‟s case. He was a rigid boy and had difficulties in accepting new activities. Due to poor verbal expression, the scenario became worse.

I also noticed he always banged on something and hurt himself. He had poor balancing and body coordination skills. He could walk straight into the glass door and fell down most of the time when running or even walking. Poor sense of danger was one of his weaknesses too. His stubbornness and impatience caused everything to become much worse. We as parents, had no idea at all what was wrong with him. We thought he was just being naughty and lazy, so we just disciplined him using a cane. Days passed by and nothing had changed due to our action and this had made his situation became worse. I was in confinement of my 3rd son. It was very heartbroken to see my Timothy at that time. I was wondering why he was not able to defend himself. Say something, son!
