  • Elin is having a grumpy day. After all my adventures with Alice I wanted to do something special with my disabled girl but this day she was having none of it. When making daily routines for a complex needs child you sometimes need to be sensitive to the fact that they may not be on the same wavelength at all. Today Elin was tired, she was having a lot of seizures and needed rest.
    I'm a special needs mum vlogger in the UK with two daughters, one of whom is severely disabled. Elin is a girl with quadriplegic cerebral palsy, she has a feeding tube, is a wheelchair user and as she can't use the toilet independently she is in a nappy / diaper.
    Apart from cerebral palsy, Elin has complex medical needs and seizure disorder. She has tonic clonic, or grand mal seizures, partial focal seizures and absence seizures. She is on multiple medications every day, for her spastic muscles, for her reflux disorder and for her epilepsy. Elin is on a blended diet, which we give her through her feeding tube, and I share tips, how to and recipes.
    On this channel I share our day to day life, our morning, feeding, medication and bedtime routines, feeding techniques, how Elin communicates, etc. I also showcase the relationship between Elin and her sister Alice, and how they play and interact with each other.

    Lovely cuddles with mummy. She does love you singing to her. I noticed she prefers it when you sing the higher notes.

      Oh yes, definitely. And she tends to prefer female vocalists in general, though she loves Ed Sheeran and Louis Fonsi.

    Elin you may not know your a famous little girl but you are loved and many of us pray for you and Alice and your mum. We love you all. Keep being a awesome little girl.

My mum wanted it to be Laura-lee but when I was born she had a heart attack and my dad messed up the birth paper work. My dad then decided I needed a middle name and gave me my mum's first name.

    Is the crying normal for her? I don’t think I’ve heard it like that in many of the videos you’ve done.

    • @ParentXP
      @ParentXP  3 роки тому +1

      I tend not to film Elin crying. If she didn't have the brain injuries, how would she feel about vlogs of her crying being put on UA-cam..? That is my thinking behind it. But when I have shown a little of Elin's moods I've had a lot of feedback about it, people being curious about how she expresses displeasure or telling me something isn't right. So I'm trying to find a balance.

      That sounds sad, is there anything your sister enjoys? Elin doesn't play as such but she loves singing so Alice interacts with her by singing and making her laugh.
