Jaxon is what they call a sensory seeker. He looks for things to give him the sort of sensory experience he wants. Somethings you might think he would like he hates. He puked a while back when touching cotton balls but he will let a spinner toy hit him in the mouth until his lips are bleeding. The only way its been explained to me is his brain doesn't process things the same way mine does. When you give him a command he may not process it for 30sec to 1min. So repeating yourself will only make it worse. He then becomes very confused. Here are some sensory seeking pictures. He is trying to get the light from the toy to hit him in the face. We of course know he won't feel anything, but he doesn't realize it until he tries for awhile.
Here he is trying to put his mouth on it without knocking it over. |
Watching the lights trying to figure out if he can feel something |
He has finally figured out if he keeps touching it, it will stop spinning every time. |
