So my boy and I are going through a tough time and by the grace of god I’m starting to see progress in his health. I’m still taking it day by day and I hate saying we are making progress because I know it could change in one second, the same way it started.
We have been dealing with intense pain in the neck when moving head left to right which would result in the most intense cries and screams I have ever heard. It has been a literal nightmare but like I said, through medication, limited activity and a lot a lot of patience we are slowly getting back to what I would call normal (knock on wood)… it’s been a very long two months and a lot money has been spent trying to get my boy back to himself..
So that’s why I’m here today— I can tell he is so bored now, he is being weened off the drugs one by one and is much more aware and he is trying to play way more now and get active, which just isn’t in the cards for the next couple weeks still as we are still recovering. My question is what toys or things I can get him to play with that DO NOT put tooooo much strain on the neck. I know basically everything will have him moving his neck around but I’m really looking for something to help him his mind busy while I try to work on my 5-9 after my 9-5 so we can escape poverty. I just want stuff I can get him where he can stay occupied for a little and mentally stimulate himself without going too crazy moving that neck.. he gets so many pets and loving and I know that’s most important but I would like to start to try to slowly work him back into toys starting with ones that don’t strain his neck too intensely..
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you guys so much!
