Chapter 14 It was the last day of school before Winter holidays and Cameron brought presents for his classmates and teachers and he gave the boys toy cars and the girls got dolls while Jessica was given perfume and Frank and Bev ended up with gift certificates to a local mall. Cameron was all smiles all day and was very excited for the afternoon party as Jennifer was going to comeback for the party in the afternoon and Zoe was coming home with him for a play date and Zoe was also very excited about coming over to Cameron's house and was talking about it all day to the teachers. Cameron got a Strawberry yogurt for morning snack and it was a very messy experience as Bev and Cameron battled over who was going to be holding the spoon and more of the yogurt was on his face than in his mouth. Cameron was even more excited for his lunch because Jennifer put a piece of pizza and a pudding for desert and that also got messy and Frank even got messy and put a bib as well so he did not get the tomato sauce from the pizza or the chocolate pudding on himself. After the party Zoe and Cameron got buckled into the car seats in the back of Jennifer's mini van and she folded up Cameron's stroller and Zoe's walker in the back of the mini van. When they got back to Cameron's house Zoe got to ride the elevator into the house with Cameron and they then played on the living room carpet and played with a play house along with some small people and toy cars and they shared the house's furniture and they had a lot fun playing together and then Zoe played with a doll while Cameron watched TV. Zoe's mother and father were their for dinner which was hamburgers and french fries and Zoe's hamburger was cut into quarters and it was in a bun and Cameron's burger was into small bites that he could grab with his hands and try to put it into his mouth while the french fries were cut in half for Zoe and Cameron had his massed up and when he needed help Carey would put a spoon of hamburger or fries into Cameron's mouth. After Zoe left with her parents Jennifer brought in his brand new wheelchair which she had picked up that morning and he was very excited to see it and Carey put him into it and put his seat belt and chest strap so he would not be able to fall out of it. He tried to wheel himself but his hand were too small even though he could reach them but then Jennifer asked him if he would like to take it outside and see some of neighborhood decorations and he nodded his head so Carey helped him put on the jacket and the three of them took a long stroll down the street.

CHAPTER 13 It was Halloween and Jennifer had put together a great custom for Cameron as she had gotten him cowboy boots and a cowboy hat and he was supposed to wear too bur he refused to wear any of his custom at home so in the end Jennifer gave up and just put his usual cloth of a t-shirt and blue jeans. Jennifer when she dropped off Cameron at school she told Bev that he did not want to wear his custom and Bev said will ask him later before they went trick-or-treating around the school as he may want to put it on when he see his classmates with their customs on. When Cameron's classmates started to arrive off their buses they mostly wear their customs starting with the twins as Billy was a firefighter in a fire suit with a helmet and even a holes that was attached to his green wheelchair and Fred was dressed up as a white bunny rabbit with painted on whiskers. The next classmate to arrive was Zoe who was dressed in princess dress and stayed in her wheelchair instead of playing on the carpet so she play house and when Cameron realized that she was not joining him on the carpet he came over and wanted her to come and join him on the carpet by looking at her and then looking at the carpet. Then he tried to get into his nursery chair by himself so he could be with Zoe but Frank came over and asked him to go back to the carpet to clean up first and he crawled back to the carpet to clean up his cars. After he cleaned up Frank asked him if he wanted to get into his chair or a higher chair so he could play with Zoe and he choose the higher chair and played with the house along with Zoe. Devora arrived in tears as she did every morning and she was not wearing a custom but there was a note in her bag and said that she had a crown in her bag and was supposed to be a queen and the final classmate was named Johnny and he walked in without a walker and was walking slowly and safely as he had balance issues while wearing a superman cape and he came over and high-fifes Cameron before he joined Fred on the carper and he was junior kindergarten student. When Frank took Cameron to the washroom he asked if Cameron wanted to put on his dress shirt and he nodded his head and when he went back into the classroom he pointed to his cowboy boots and Frank helped him put it on and Jessica handed him his cowboy hat from his cubby and he put it on his head. While Jessica asked the class to line up at the door and Johnny lined up first and Fred got help from Bev to get into his walker and Jessica had Billy and Devora lined up with Bev. Then Jessica asked Zoe if she wanted to stay in her wheelchair or come out and use her walker and she choose her walker which was a three-quarter box that she was strapped in and it was called a riften. Frank pushed Cameron down the hall and he had a device called a big mac that Jessica had programmed it to say trick-or-treat every time he pressed the button and as they went down the hallway Cameron saw the older students of the school were handing out the candy. By the time they all got back to the classroom they all had a lot of candy and Cameron was trying to get to eat the candy but Jessica said maybe later and he took it home at the end of the day and showed Carey who came to pick him up the bag of candy and later Carey and Jennifer took him out trick-or-treating in the neighborhood and he was extremely happy.

When they got to 12 the doors opened and they walked out into a big hallway and they turned to their left and started to look for room 1220 which ended up being at the very end of the very long hallway and when they got to room 1220 Kelly went to talk to the receptionist while Carey put Cameron back into his stroller and sat beside him and they waited for what was going to happen next. Cameron had never been in this building and was interested in everything around him but still did not know why he was here and what the posters on the walls with the great big wheels were because they did not look like his cars at home or daycare and did not look like anything he had seen it was bigger than his parents car. Five went by and then 10, and than 15 and then what felt like forever for Cameron whoever they were there to see was ready for them so they walked down the hall and into a small room a couple of those things on wheels he had seen on the walls and they looked a little bit smaller than they had before. First he meet a young lady named Elizabeth and she brought a small thing on wheels towards him and said this is a wheelchair would U like to sit in it and see how it fells and he nodded his head so Kelly took him out of his little stroller and put him in this big wheelchair and had had the seat belt put on and he tried to reach the wheels but his arms were to short. Elizabeth poked around Cameron while he was in the car and made some notes on her computer and then Cameron was laid down on a mat and Elizabeth got a tape measure out measured him and than said "all done, thanks Cameron U were a great help" and then said to Carey and Kelly "it will be ready by the end of December".

the boy that could - Chapter six

Chapter six It was the first Tuesday in January and Cameron was still fighting all the way to Daycare but when Kelly opened the door to the Daycare Cameron heard Billy's voice and was trying violently to get his jacket off and Kelly had to come him down before the jacket could come off and rubbed the back of his neck which was way to relax him. When Kelly took him out of his stroller and put him on the ground he started quickly crawling around and found Billy standing in front of Jennifer and Cameron went over and gave Billy's leg the tightest hug he could and when Cameron let go of his leg they moved over to the carpet where Zoe was playing with the cars so the boys joined her and they all worked together the best road ever with even streets that criss crossing too. The three of them played together along time until Zoe headed over the house center to join Miranda and started to play with the dolls and then after Cameron put away his car and helped Billy put the blocks back by pushing them to him he came over to play with them. So Billy went over to join another friend Rod who was drawing at a table and he draw a picture of him and Cameron playing in the sun and when he was finished his picture he went over to the house center and sat down beside Cameron and handed him the picture and Cameron looked at it and then started to crawl to his cubby where he tried to stretch his arms as tall as he could but could not reach the top of his cubby where he wanted to put the picture. Then Phillip came over and asked if Cameron "would u like help" and Cameron nodded his head and Phillip asked him "how can I help u" and Cameron with the picture in his hand pointed it towards the top of cubby so Phillip put Billy's picture into Cameron's cubby for him. When it came time for lunch Billy was told that he could not wear a bib and Billy was not happy and looked very crossed and folded his arms but Bridget told Billy that his mom said "no bib" so Billy throw his spoon on the floor so he was asked to leave the table. After a couple of minutes he was ready to have his grilled cheese sandwich and while this was going on Phillip was having a huge problem of getting Cameron to keep his bib on so he allowed him to not have one if he allowed Phillip to feed him which he allowed him to do as he was struggling getting his sandwich into his mouth. The afternoon went smoothly until Kelly showed up to get Cameron and he did want to leave so Kelly waited 10 minutes for Billy's mom to come pick him up and Cameron and Billy left together and they high-five each other before going in their separate directions.

The kitten roll around on the ground and Cameron try to roll with it and it also sneak around look for something to pounce on and Cameron would quietly crawl behind the kitten that Kelly named Climey because he loved to be up high and look over everyone. Cameron and Climey became the best of friends and they lie down together on the floor and rest together and Climey had a water bowl on the floor and when he went over to lick up some water Cameron had his own bowl where he would use tongue and try to lick up water but it usually ended up on the floor. When Kelly took Cameron for strolls in his stroller Climey came too as he had a collar and leash so he could walk beside them and not get lost but Climey did not like to get his grey with black stripes paws wet so had a spot underneath Cameron's stroller were could sit nice and dry out of the snow and watch the world go by. Then a week later on New Years morning Carey heard Climey crying and he went to Cameron's room and Climey was try to climb over the railings around his bed so he could be with Cameron so Carey picked Climey up and put him at the bottom of the bed where Climey curled up into a little ball and fell asleep. That morning when Kelly got Cameron and Climey out of bed she gave Cameron cereal for breakfast with milk and Kelly was finished feeding the milk and cereal to Cameron she put the bowl on the ground so that Climey could lick up the rest of the milk.

The Boy that could chapter four

chapter four It was a very long December at Daycare for Cameron as Billy soon after his birthday party left with his family and went to Florida for Christmas as they had a beach house there and Billy's grandparents were retired and living there to. So it was harder for Kelly and Carey to be able to get Cameron up and ready for Daycare as he did not want to be there without Billy and he was not as hungry and only wanted pancakes for breakfast so whenever Kelly or Carey gave him something different it was very tough for them to get him to open his mouth for the likes of cereal, yogurt, and fruit. He made it harder for his parents to put his jacket on in the morning as he would not allow them to put his arms into the it so they had to wrap him up in a blanket to get him to the car where he would fight them as they worked together to get the car seat straps on him and then he would cry all the way to Daycare. When he got to Daycare he crawled away from everyone and did not want to share toys with Zoe or Zach, an almost three year old that was knew to the room, so Zoe would try and play beside Cameron and when Cameron saw her besides him he would crawl away and after a while Zoe would just get up and walk away to find something else to do. Then sometimes Cameron would see Zoe and Miranda, who would be four in January, who were really good friends playing with the dolls in the dollhouse he would crawl over and join them and get a doll for himself and play dolls with them. For lunch Cameron liked to sit beside Miranda and watch how Miranda eat her food and tried to copy it and usually failed and Phillip at the end of lunch would help Cameron by feeding him so that he could get ready for nap time. During nap time Camereon like to have Miranda and Zoe both in front of him but that usually did not work as it got to noisy and Jennifer had to come over and move the three of them to different parts of the room so it would be quieter ans if anyone actually wanted to fall asleep they could. Cameron when Kelly came at the end of the day was very happy and halped Kelly a lot getting his jacket on as he really wanted to go to the park and play in the snow which was something they usually did before they went inside so Kelly could start dinner and Cameron played in his room with blocks trying to put them together and would cry for Kelly's help if he could not put them together and Kelly after dinner was started would sit down beside him and they would build together just Cameron and Billy had at Daycare.

The Boy that could chapter three

chapter three It was a very long two days for Cameron as he waited to able to go to Billy's house for the party but Kelly was worried if Cameron would be able to be apart of the party or would he fell left out and not enjoy himself. When Kelly and Cameron showed up to Billy's house it was very big and when Billy's mother she said "thanks for coming" and said that the kids were upstairs in Billy's room and it right next to the stairs and did not have any protection to prevent a kid like Cameron to not fall down the stairs and serious hurt himself. When Kelly talking to his mother he came to the top of the stair and said "Hi" and minute later he came down the stairs and had some cars in his pocket and went to the living room and sat and said "Cameron do U want to play with me" and Cameron who was still in Kelly's arm started to squirm around and Kelly put him on the floor and watched Cameron he followed Billy's voice. When Cameron got over to Billy he saw a yellow, a blue, and a green car on the floor and Billy already had a blue car so Cameron choice the other blue car and Cameron started chase Billy and his blue car and while they going around in cycles and started to laugh. A couple of minutes later Roddy and Zoe and the other guests started to come down bring down their cars and Billy's dad brought down the racetrack for the cars and started to setup the track in the dining room which a much bigger open space and when the other kids started to play Cameron took his blue car and started to push along with the yellow one towards where the other kids were and Billy picked up his Blue car along with the green car and walked beside Cameron and when they joined the others they sat a different spots of the track and all went at the same time and they crashed together and they started to laugh. When it was time for the cake Billy had decorated some paper bibs at daycare and put on one and passed one or to Cameron who Kelly helped him put it on and then all the other kids asked Billy for one and he handed them all one. This surprised the other parents who wondered why their kid wanted to wear a bib especially Billy's mother who did not know that he had done this at daycare except for Kelly who was crying for joy. It was a great party and so thankful for Billy being such a great friend and hugged him before Cameron and herself left to go home and Billy sat down to high five Cameron and said "comeback soon".

When Carey put him on the change table and Carey showed Cameron two shirts and Cameron looked at one than the other and then he pointed to the second one and it was the beginning of Cameron making decisions on what he wanted to wear. Cameron smelt something squirmed and looked towards the kitchen and when he was dressed Carey put him into his high chair and then Kelly brought him a plate of cut pancake pieces and she across from him and wanted to feed him the pancake but instead he looked away from Kelly. After a while Kelly got up and left the plastic plate with the pancake bites and when turned away Cameron turned his head towards them and started to pick up a piece and put it into his mouth and most of it went on the floor again. A couple of minutes later Kelly came back and offered to feed him again and Cameron opened his mouth so Kelly could feed him. When Kelly helped Cameron with his coat all Cameron could do was look at a wrapped present by the door and after helped Cameron zip up his winter jacket she llok at where Cameron was looking and said "is it Billy's birthday" and Cameron smiled and then she said "is that Billy's present" and Cameron nodded and finally Kelly said "who is going to Billy his present" and Cameron patted his stomach". When Cameron got to Daycare and had Jennifer help him with his jacket and was put on the ground he started to crawl around and looked everywhere and then sat quietly in the corner until he heard Billy's voice and followed it. Billy had just gotten to Daycare and after took his jacket off and put it into his cabby Cameron pulled his sleeve and pointed towards his gifted and started to crawl towards it and then looked back to make sure Billy was following him and when they got to it Billy said " mine" and Cameron nodded. After Bridget said "Boys not yet" they went over to Zoe who was playing with the cars and Billy brought some blocks and Billy passed them to Cameron who pushed them to where he wanted them Billy showed Cameron a blue car and a red car and Cameron point at the blue car and Billy took the red car.

The Boy that could - chapter one

When Cameron got to daycare he just started to crawl around the carpet with big blocks and Kelly was scared to leave him and alone so Jennifer, who was one of the daycare staff went over to be with Cameron as he knocked over a bunch of blocks off the shelf and he got knocked over by the blocks and just laughed and laughed and laughed as Jennifer started to pick the blocks off Cameron. While Kelly talked with Bridget, another staff member at the Daycare and was worried that Cameron was going to get hurt as he had gotten scarabs before at daycare and Bridget explained that is natural in the learning process of young children. As Kelly was leaving she saw a boy named Billy, a two year old walk over and sit down and helped Cameron to build a big tower and it brought a smile to her face. Cameron and Billy built the tower as Cameron passed Billy the blocks and Billy put the blocks higher and higher and higher and when it was really high Cameron tugged on Billy's sleeve and Billy said "destroy" and Cameron nodded his head and Billy said "go" and Cameron pushed over tower as Billy and Jennifer watched. By lunch Cameron had a great time listen to songs and playing with Billy along with Zoe who played cars with him and for lunch Cameron and his friends sat at small table with Cameron having a belt to strap himself into the chair so he did not fall. Today it was spaghetti and meat balls and everyone wore a bib like Cameron and Phillip, another staff member, helped to feed Cameron while Billy and his buddy Roger feed each other a couple of bites after watching Cameron eat. After nap time Kelly came to pick Cameron up from daycare and he screamed all the way home as he did not want to leave his friends at daycare but when they got home Kelly read him a story before he played with cars in his room while Kelly was nearby getting dinner ready.

The Boy that could -the beginning

It was the first Tuesday in September and it was time for the summer break to be over and for Cameron he was woken up by his mother Kelly and he crawled under his blanket and Kelly picked up Cameron and the blanket and put them on a large table.When Kelly unwrapped Cameron from the blanket he simply smiled and was got him dressed and carried him next door to Cameron's room which was dining room and he was strapped into his high chair and waited for breakfast and he banged the tray of his high chair and laughed and his dad Carey brought him a bowl of dry cereal and he looked at it and then looked at Carey and a minute later he dove his hand and with medium sized hand pulled out five bites of cereal and brought it to his mouth and by the time he put his hand into his mouth he was down to two pieces and he crunched those pieces happily and dad just watched with a great big smile on his face and by the time Cameron was done he had probably but a third into his mouth and the rest was either on the floor on his tray. When Carey took the bowl off the tray Cameron tried to pick up pieces of cereal up off his tray and was able to pick up a piece and actually put it into mouth excitedly and crunched it like there was no tomorrow. For most three year old's it was not a big deal but for Cameron things just a lot slower as he was born with Cerebral palsy a disorder of the brain and the nerve system that affects people muscles in different ways. cerebral palsy happens at birth there are a number of different levels of it and for Cameron he did not have the leg strength in his legs to walk yet or even talk. After breakfast Cameron and Kelly worked together to get his jacket on with Kelly needing to pull the jacket off Cameron's head as he pulled the jacket over his head time after time it took a long time to get the jacket on with Kelly pulling Cameron's arms through the sleeves and zipped it up. Then she put him in his stroller to get to the car and was put into car seat where he squirmed around and Carey had to hold him in place while Kelly strapped him in and they were on the their way to daycare.
