Tributes have been paid to a councillor and former mayor of Waltham Forest, who has died aged just 34.
Nadeem Ali, who had served as a Labour councillor for William Morris ward in Walthamstow since 2010, died on Saturday (May 13).
Mr Ali was also mayor of Waltham Forest from May 2013 to May 2014, becoming the youngest person to complete a full term in the office at just 30 years of age.
The flag at Town Hall, in Forest Road, Walthamstow, will be flown at half-mast in tribute to the councillor.
Waltham Forest council leader, Chris Robbins, said: "We were deeply saddened to learn that Cllr Nadeem Ali tragically passed away on Saturday, aged just 34. Our thoughts are with his family.
"He was incredibly passionate about local issues and helping the community, and was an excellent ambassador for the borough. He will be greatly missed in Waltham Forest."
"Out of respect for Nadeem and his family we are flying the flag at half-mast at the Town Hall and a book of condolence has been opened in the Town Hall reception area, which residents are welcome to come and contribute to.
"We know that residents will want to pay their respects, and there will be more information about commemoration for Nadeem over the coming days."
Cllr Ali was brought up in the borough, attending Mission Grove Primary, Willowfield Secondary School and George Monoux College.
He is the son of Waltham Forest council cabinet member for community safety, Cllr Liaquat Ali, who also served as mayor of the borough from 2007 to 2008.
He is also survived by his wife, Saika, and brothers Hather and Umar.

Subject: New TV Casting: Cash In Your Life $$$
"Cash In Your Life (dollar signs)" is a show I will sacrifice everything to be on.
New Television Casting for: Ca$h In Your Life
Got it.
NEW TV #CASTING: Cash In Your Life
A new television series
Family Ties? J/k it's: Cash In Your Life
is seeking out couples and families for a chance to cash in their lives for a fresh start!
So let me get this straight. I cash in my life - like you take my life and give me money for it, and then I am dead (bad) but have money (good) - and then I get a fresh start? As a rich dead person? Is this "Weekend at Bernie's III: The Musical?"
Have you always wondered, what if? What if you had followed your dreams? What if you no longer had the job you don't love?
What if you had followed your dreams
What if you no longer had the job you didn't love
What if you should decide
That you want to cash in your life
For a show called Ca$h In Your Life
Ooh ooh-ooh, that's right
Let's take a brave jump over the side
Maybe your real calling is to open up a bed & breakfast, a boutique, or run a yacht charter.
Well yeah, sure, no doubt my calling is to run a yacht charter. That would be wonderful, obvs. But it's like, add me to the list of people whose dream it is to run a yacht charter, you know? I mean, you could graduate with honors from the best yacht charter school around (University of Phoenix Online Yacht Charter School) which, you know, I did - just sayin' - but you still have to know someone to get your foot in the door. It's all politics. And I have a family to raise. I had to make sacrifices. I'm not bitter though.
Whatever your dream may be,
My dream is to run a yacht charter.
we are ready to pull out the stops, appraise your life, and offer you a check to cash in and start the life you have always wanted.
Please appraise my life and inform me if I am worth enough to go back in time to run a yacht charter school. Do I have to start as a baby again? I am going to be one impatient-ass baby, knowing that a yacht charter gig awaits but I have to go through all the bells and whistles of growing up and establishing bonds unrelated to yacht chartering. Unless:
Doron Ofir Casting is on a nationwide search for couples that are tired of being in the same old rut, with the same old job and want to find out what their lives are really worth!
Me: Babe. You're not going to believe this!
Wife: What?
Me: Doron Ofir Casting is on a nationwide search for couples that are tired of being in the same old rut and they're going to turn them into babies again and give them money or whatever and then we can finally start BABY-RUN YACHT CHARTER.
Wife: I'm sorry - "same old rut?"
Me: Hey, listen - I told you when we got married that if the chance ever arose for me to cash in my life and finally fulfill my dream of chartering yachts, I would jump. You just never thought it would happen.
Wife: I'm going to bed.
Me: By "bed" do you mean "rut?" SEE WHAT I MEAN.
If you are finally ready to roll the dice and turn your fantasy into reality then apply now at:
(logs on to Internet, applies)
(auditions, rejected as life is valued at $3.75 - insufficient for yacht charter deposit - although immeasurable in factors of love, joy, inner peace)

Broken cameras, amateur first-responders, a muddle of paperwork and $44 million wasted were what Cook County's Homeland Security program dubbed Project Shield has boiled down to, according to a federal report released yesterday.
A six-month investigation by the inspector general of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security found that the program--which was part of a post-9/11 push for increased security--had "missing records, improper procurement practices, unallowable costs and unaccountable inventory items." Cook County pulled the plug on the program last summer, but this is the first comprehensive review since it was first instituted in 2005.
The initiative focused on installing police cameras in suburban Chicagoland. Stationary cameras were placed in areas that could be susceptible to terrorist attacks. And 256 police cars were fitted with cameras that sent live video to the central command center.
Questions about the effectiveness of local homeland security projects are not new. Back in 2002, a Chicago Reporter investigation found that Chicago's terrorism prevention plans were impossible to assess in large part because they were shrouded in secrecy. City officials, firefighters and even police officers were in the dark about what Chicago's emergency preparedness plan entailed.
"Whether there is a plan, whether it exists or not, I don't know," Southwest Side Alderman Thomas W. Murphy told the Reporter at the time.
Yet, the program had a very public presence. Both Project Shield and former Mayor Richard M. Daley's penchant for surveillance earned Chicago the dubious honor of being home to the "most extensive and integrated" network of surveillance cameras in the country, according to a 2011 report by the American Civil Liberties Union.
In the report, the group suggests that to keep cameras from invading individuals' privacy the images taken should be regularly discarded, and that invasive technology, like face recognition software, should only be used if there is probable cause. They also called on Chicago officials to stop installing cameras altogether.
The new federal report also found overreach: "These camera often targeted police parking lots, streets and intersections with questionable homeland security benefits," the investigators noted. Ultimately, the impetus to scrap the program was primarily because it failed to keep people safe.
"We have spent hundreds of millions of dollars across the country on homeland security. If Project Shield is any indication, we are less safe," said U.S. Rep Mike Quigley, who called the project a scandal. He's now calling on the Government Accountability Office to probe the program. But the feds aren't making any promises.

YOU don't even have to know who Robert Evans is to love THE KID STAYS IN THE PICTURE (2002). Maybe you missed Mr. Evans's 1950's acting career (a bullfighter in ''The Sun Also Rises,'' a New York cad in ''The Best of Everything'') and his fashion-industry career (Evan-Picone, a family business). Maybe you didn't know he was head of Paramount Pictures overseeing megahits like ''Chinatown,'' ''Rosemary's Baby,'' ''Love Story'' and ''The Godfather'' or that he suffered a great downfall, accompanied by cocaine. Brett Morgen and Nanette Burstein directed this documentary, about the passing of a certain kind of Hollywood glamour, but Mr. Evans, who will be 73 next month, is the star, subject and wonderfully unreliable narrator -- Thursday at 9 p.m. and Thursday/Early Friday at 5:20 a.m. on HBO.
For the two little boys in LOST IN YONKERS (1993), moving in with their grandmother turns out to be less boring than they'd thought. Uncle Louie (Richard Dreyfuss) is always dropping in, hiding out from mobsters (''It's like having a James Cagney movie in your own house,'' says Artie, the younger boy). Aunt Bella (Mercedes Ruehl, who will break your heart) lives with them and is a little mentally confused but full of life and madly in love with a movie usher (David Strathairn). We're all lucky that Neil Simon had such a rich, varied youth to turn into plays and screenplays. The cast also includes Brad Stoll and Mike Damus as the boys and the incomparable Irene Worth as the grandmother. Martha Coolidge directed -- Saturday at 8 p.m. on Channel 9.
Everyone wants Annie Nations to leave her home and the Blue Ridge Mountains she's loved all her life. In Jud Taylor's touching FOXFIRE (1987), ''everyone'' means Annie's son (John Denver, who seems miscast even though he's playing a country music star) and a creepy real estate development man (Gary Grubbs). Luckily Annie (Jessica Tandy) has her dead husband, Hector (Hume Cronyn), to talk to when it comes to making a choice between place and family, and remembering when those were the same thing -- Sunday at 9 p.m. on Hallmark.
Diane Lane was 14 when she made her movie debut in A LITTLE ROMANCE (1979), starting at the top by starring with Laurence Olivier. Ms. Lane plays an American teenager who goes to school in Paris and falls in love with a French boy (Thelonious Bernard) who befriends an elderly pickpocket (Olivier) who accompanies them on a trip to Venice. George Roy Hill directed this sweet if strangely mean-spirited romantic comedy -- Thursday at 6 p.m. on TCM.
Garry Shandling offers Anna Paquin as a sort of sexual CARE package to his friends. ''I found her on an elevator,'' he says of the runaway teenager she plays. ''You want her?'' Kevin Spacey and Sean Penn star as Hollywood housemates in HURLYBURLY (1998), Anthony Drazan's film version of David Rabe's play about casual emotional brutality. Mr. Rabe also wrote the screenplay, which suggests, in the words of Stephen Holden, writing in The New York Times, that ''the war between men and women'' may just be ''an offshoot of a larger and more deadly war, the one waged by men against themselves.'' The ensemble cast, which also includes Chazz Palminteri, Robin Wright Penn and Meg Ryan, is outstanding, but Ms. Ryan still can't read the character-defining line ''I am a drug person'' the way Judith Ivey did on Broadway -- Thursday at 8 and 11:30 p.m. and Saturday at 5:30 p.m. on FX.

Betteridge's Law of HeadlinesW states: Any headline which ends in a question mark can be answered by the word No. This is probably the fundamental law of misleading health journalism, most especially the perennially unreliable Daily Mail and of course most of all WDDTY.
November 2014's front page splash was a perfect example: GcMAF: The superhero for your health problem?
The story itself is a classic piece of WDDTY, combining conspiracist claptrap, the self-serving claims of charlatans, anecdotes masquerading as data and presenting GcMAF as the One True Cure™.

The recent Smarter Learning for Self-directed Support Conference invited everyone to think about the small things they can do to make a big difference to someone's life.
The event took place in Edinburgh in late February and the day consisted of a range of presentations and workshop sessions designed to get everyone thinking about how they can help people to take more control over their own support. The power of good conversations and listening to, and learning from, supported people and their families was an important message throughout the day.
What's your morning routine?
Donna Allan and the team from East Ayrshire Council opened the event by asking everyone to write down their personal morning routine. What do you need to do to get ready each morning? What is important to you? Coffee with milk? Quick shower? Toast with butter and jam?
We then swapped our routine with someone else's. What impact would it have on you if you weren't in control of your morning and had to fit in with somebody else's schedule? While some people were happy with their 'new' routine, the majority were not.
"I'm going to have to do a three mile run before breakfast, and I hate running."
What's your lightbulb moment?
We asked everyone to share their lightbulb moment for self-directed support (SDS) to prompt discussion about things they had done or want to do. We're still collecting lightbulb moments so if you'd like to share yours you can post it on Twitter with the hashtag #scbd15.
Open Badges and sharing our learning
One of the big themes from the day was how can we share and learn together more effectively. One way of recognising and rewarding people's learning is through Open Badges. Open Badges are digital certificates which recognise learning and achievement. You can find out more about Open Badges on our Open Badges website. Even if you were unable to attend the event, you can still earn your Activator Badge for sharing your learning.

It is a sharp increase in certified nursing assistant (CNA). This increase in demand for CNA is rapidly aging population we have. Age at which people get sick and use is becoming younger. There is a growing need for people to take care of sick people and to provide long-term care for seniors who are unable to take care of themselves. At the same time, there is only a few people who are now qualified to work both in hospitals, care facilities or homes, these patients. Only those who have CNA certification can act as nurse aides. This CNA certification ensures that only those with appropriate qualifications is entrusted to the care of sick and elderly. When you get CNA certification, you can run upward trend in demand for nurse aide.
While you may think that the assistant nurse is not only a respectable position in the medical field, the work of nurses is an important part of the service for their entire life in a hospital or nursing home. nursing assistant who is a government mandated to report and receive instruction only a nurse, actually makes the patients life more comfortable. All the necessary skills to learn, so this might be learned from the course. These programs provide nursing care facilities, schools and colleges. These courses prepare you for the CNA certification exam. Only people who have been approved to get to the exam for certification. When you pass the certification exam, your name is not included in the tests State Nursing Assistant Registry has achieved the necessary skills and who want to pursue nursing.

Nonfiction Chapter Books
This unit prepares children to write informational texts of all sorts across this year's curriculum. This unit takes children on a writing journey that builds in sophistication. It begins with instruction in how to make a basic type of information book, a picture book, and ends with children creating chapter books. In this unit children will learn to organize their informational writing as well as use domain specific vocabulary to teach the reader about the topic. Students will learn to create a table of contents by studying other nonfiction books and to create introductions to let their reader know what they will learn and conclusions to leave their reader with a big idea. Students will continue to edit and revise their writing using checklists.
Learning About the World
This is our nonfiction reading unit. In this unit we will be teaching about how we can learn about the world by reading nonfiction books. We will be studying different topics and discover that studying one page can teach us so much about a topic. This unit is rich in content specific vocabulary, but also includes reading strategies such as monitoring for sense, reading with expressions and tackling tricky words to build fluency.
In this unit we will read nonfiction books but also continue reading our leveled books. Guided reading and small strategy group will continue during this time.
Chapter 4: Subtraction strategies
This chapter follows the common core standards; 1.OA.A.2 Represent and solve problems involving addition and subtraction. 1. OA.C.5 Add and subtract within 20 and 1.OA.B.3 Understand and apply properties of operations and relationship between addition and subtraction. 1.OA.C.6 Add and subtract within 20, demonstrating fluency for addition and subtraction within 10.
Foss Investigation; Animal Diversity
The essential questions we will be working on is how each animal has different structures that serve different functions in growth, survival, and reproduction. Students' ideas about the characteristics of organisms develop from their basic concepts of living and nonliving things. As students investigate the continuity of life, students will make observations about how the offspring of familiar animals compare to one another and their parents. We will also be looking at how animals have changed depending on their environment. They will be able to recognize how differences among individuals within a species can help an organism to survive in their environment. Some key ideas are: Living things are both similar to and different from each other and from nonliving things. Organisms inherit genetic information in a variety of ways. Individual organisms and species change over time and the continuity of life is sustained through reproduction and development.
Social Studies
Families and communities are important.
The essential question we will be working on is why are families important and how do they influence who we are? We will be focusing on languages, beliefs, customs, and traditions that help shape the identity and culture of our families and community.
helpful reminders:
- Please check your Child's homework folder each night, important information goes home in the homework folders
- any money for school must be in a labeled envelope
- please check your Child's gym and art schedule, sneakers and smocks should be worn on those days

April showers bring May flowers! Let's welcome spring.
For Reading this month, we will focus on reading nonfiction books and determining the main idea and supporting details of the book. The students will be able to organize their notes by using a variety of note taking strategies such as boxes and bullets, listing, paragraph form and graphic organizers. The students will be learning different ways to improve their nonfiction reading skills by stopping and jotting information gathered across many books on one topic, while making a connection between the books. The students will learn how to synthesize and summarize the information gathered, using their own words, as well as forming the information into a "main idea". This unit will provide more practice for the students to read nonfiction books and to be able to discuss their topics within their nonfiction book clubs. The students will need to preview their book by taking a sneak peek (looking at the cover, reading the table of contents, glossary, and observing the photographs within the book), while paying close attention to the structure of the book.
Boxes and Bullets
- Evidence #1 (Examples)
- Evidence #2 (Examples) Bullets
- Evidence #3 (Examples)
For Writing, our main focus will be to write lab reports and science books. Within this unit, the students will be able to conduct an experiment through multiple trials by asking and recording a question. The students will jot information and sketch a picture as they gather information to develop a four page lab report booklet. The students will have to organize their booklets in a format that is clear to understand. For example, the hypothesis will be on the first page, the procedure on the second page, the results on the third page and their conclusion on the fourth page. The main goal within this unit will be to help the students understand the scientific procedures (Hypothesis, Procedure, Results, Conclusion)and writing process. The students will become experts and be able to teach others about their discoveries.
The focus for Math this month will be Chapter 8 – Length in Customary Units. The focus question for this chapter will be, "What are some of the methods and tools that can be used to estimate and measure length?" The following questions to guide the students learning and understanding will be, "What tools can be used to measure length and how do you use them?", "What units can be used to measure length and how do they compare with each other?", and "How can you estimate the length of an object?" Within this chapter, your child should be able to properly use the tools to measure objects by using a ruler (centimeters and inches), yard stick and measuring tape. The vocabulary that your child will need to know for this chapter are data, estimate, inch, line plot, measuring tape, sum, and yard stick. The students will gather data collected on their measurements and create a line plot. You can support your child at home by practicing how to measure various items at home by using measuring tape, a ruler, and/or a yard stick. Your child would benefit by reviewing classwork and math vocabulary on a nightly basis to enhance their understanding. Please encourage your children to use the math vocabulary when an opportunity presents itself, break apart word problems by underlining key information (numbers) and circle the question within the word problem to guide their problem solving skills. After each chapter, the students will take a chapter assessment. You can help your child prepare for the chapter assessment by reviewing class work and the chapter review in the back of their book.
For Science this month, we will be studying Interdependent Relationships in Ecosystems. In this unit, we will plan and conduct investigations to determine if plants need sunlight and water to grow. As we research and explore plants and animals, we will develop a simple model that illustrates how they depend on each other for survival, and compare the diversity of life in different habitats. You can support your child at home by encouraging him or her to share his or her growing knowledge of plants and animals, as well as their relationship.
In Social Studies, we will wrap up the unit on Urban, Suburban and Rural communities. Students will take a post-test in which they will compare and contrast human resources, population and transportation in the different communities. Following the unit on communities, we will launch our new unit, "Rights, Rules and Responsibilities." Our focus questions for this unit will be, "What is governement?" and "Why do people need laws?" Students will read, take notes, question and discuss to learn the United States has a demoncractic from of government. They will study the purpose and structure of our governement, including the three branches: executive, legislative and judicial. They will also understand the roles and responsibilities of government leaders. New vocabulary for this unit will include: leaders, democracy and constitution.
Homework is assigned on a nightly basis. Please make sure to check your child's folders as well as planner each night. Please make sure to empty your child's folder of previous notices. The children should be reading for 30 minutes and logging their books as well as time spent reading each night. While reading, your child should continue to your Post-Its to track their thinking and events within the story. Homework is critical for students understanding as it is practice of the material covered in class. Missing/ incomplete assignments must be made up. Five or more missing assignments will result in your child missing the next class trip.
- Any money for school (trips, lunch, book orders, etc.) must be in a labeled
- Please remember that your child needs to wear sneakers for physical education.
- Our spring break is April 10 – April 18. We will return to school on Wednesday, April 19th. Enjoy the time off with your family.

Congratulations to everyone for completing the ELA State tests. We still have the Math state test approaching on May 2nd-4th. That said, attendance, focus, and commitment to homework are still extremely important. Thanks for your cooperation! We know that your children will be well prepared!
Please note that Reading Response homework and Word Study assignment will restart this month now that the ELA is complete.
REMINDER: The New York State Math exams will take place on May 2,3,& 4th.
REMINDER: Please bring in sharpened pencils, baby wipes, Lysol wipes, glue sticks, and post it notes.
REMINDER: Visit P.S. 38´s website to stay updated on school events at www.ps38si.org
In Reading, the children will be engaged in an Non-fiction unit called Research Clubs: Elephants, Penguins, and Frogs, Oh MY! Students will be assigned to a small group and sort through various texts to acquire information on a particular animal. Please note, that children may be required to do some additional research about their animal at home. Along with teaching research skills, this unit will also provide students with the opportunity to improve their note-taking skills, synthesize information together, identify text structures, and carefully consider the choices authors make.
We are currently wrapping up Chapter 9 which is called Comparing Fractions. The children are learning to model fractions and determine which represents a larger or smaller amount. They are also practicing how to order a set of fractions from least to greatest or greatest to least. After we complete chapter 9, we will be moving on to chapter 11 on Area and Perimeter. This concept is frequently present on the state test and therefore needs our attention. We will touch on some lessons in Chapter 10 and return to it fully after the State tests are complete.
In Writing, we will be entering a unit called Writing About Research. This writing unit goes hand in hand with our unit in Reading. Students will work together to write club books about each animal they research. This unit supports the students in deepening their understanding of Informational writing in critical areas such as: structure, elaboration, organization, and craft.
Social Studies
Our investigation on China will continue. We will be learning about China's history, government, land, traditions, education, and other aspects of their culture.

Let's Go Back In Time…
"The time is now near at hand which must determine whether Americans are to be freed men or Slaves."
George Washington
Dear Parents,
The children have worked very hard to prepare for the English Language Arts Exam and transferred their skills throughout the exam. This month we will be going on a trip to Fraunces Tavern in New York City to learn more about the Revolutionary War. We will also be preparing for our Mathematics State Exam, which will be the first week of May.
In Reading Workshop, we will be learning through reading the American Revolution. The unit will involve researching different topics on the Revolutionary War. Students will be able to gain independence by taking notes and organizing information, use different sources of information, and think about the point of view. Our Social Studies unit, Revolutionary Period, will be integrated during Reading Workshop. The children will be looking at how the American Revolution affected lives in New York and the other colonies. Allow your child to visit the library and read books about this time period. They should be able to summarize, analyze perspectives, analyze parts of the text in relation to the whole, and make cross text synthesis. Be sure that your child is using the following tools (found in the reading folder):
- Informational Rubric
- Conversation prompts
- Graphic organizers such as a timeline, box and bullet, Venn diagram, T-chart, webs
- Unit vocabulary
In Writing Workshop, we will writing a research report on a subtopic related to the Revolutionary War. The children should be able to take what they researched during reading workshop and write their own report. They will be able to create chapters that weld together facts, questions, stories and ideas. The children should be able to organize their writing into subtopics or sections, elaborate by including facts, examples, quotes, dates, diagrams, and charts, and revise and edit their own piece. The children will be graded based on their checklist and rubric, which can be found in their writing folder.
In Math, we will be working on test prep as well as reviewing Units 10, 11, and 13 in Go Math. The children should review the work we have done in class every night for homework. The students take notes in their math notebook and also reflect on the lesson to act as a support for them. The students should know all of their multiplication facts and should practice multiplication and division until they know how to do both.
For test prep, they need to understand the basic concepts in mathematics, such as addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. They also need to practice problem solving, explaining in words the process used to solve the problem. We will be using the Mathematics Mentoring Minds books to prepare for the exam as well. The important units to review include:
- Place Value
- Multiplication by 1-Digit Numbers and 2-Digit Numbers
- Division
- Factors, Multiples, Patterns,
- Fractions (comparing, adding, subtracting, and multiplying)
- Geometry
During Science with Ms. Regan, the children will be practicing for the science state exam which will be in May.
We are enjoying working with your children. Please feel free to contact us at any time to discuss your child's progress or to discuss ideas that would enhance your child's education.

October Reading Unit Name: Tackling Complexity, Moving Up Levels of Nonfiction During this unit students will read a variety of nonfiction texts and work to integrate information in order to write or speak about the subject knowledgeably. They will also collect resources, vocabulary, and essential questions for their topic. Finally students will prepare a seminar that captures their learning and understanding of their topic. Attached you will find the self- assessment rubric we use to demonstrate what qualities student writing about reading work should contain at grade levels 3 through 5.These levels reflect end of year aspirations, and show what students should be working towards. For example, a fifth grade student response should contain all the level 4 elements, and we are teaching students how to raise the quality of their writing about reading to include elements of the level 5 column.
Writing Unit Name: Information Writing About Topics of Personal Expertise During this unit students will write a clearly structured and well developed informational text on a topic of personal expertise. They will learn to categorize and organize information, as well as use expert vocabulary to teach about their topic. Students will draft, revise, edit, and publish a feature article on their topic of expertise. Lastly, they will work on self-assessing their writing to identify goals for future work.
Math Critical Area: Fluency with Whole Numbers and Decimals Chapter 2 Divide Whole Numbers In this chapter students will be improving their division skills. Students will learn to divide with one and two digit divisors, how to use the partial quotients algorithm, how to estimate quotients with 2 digit divisors, and how to interpret remainders. Chapter 3: Add and Subtract Decimals In this chapter, students will practice adding and subtracting decimals. They will attain a better understanding of the place value system and perform operations with multi-digit whole numbers and with decimals to hundredths. By the end of the unit, they will be able to add, subtract, multiply, and divide decimals as well as, estimating, and practice problem solving through the usage of the decimal system.
Science Variables Investigation Unit In this unit, students will develop the skills of inquiry and controlled experimentation.

On Tuesday, July 1st I took Ethan to STEPS. Ethan seemed very happy to be back at school. I mentioned to his teachers that we had noticed that Ethan was loosing his balance a lot and sometimes lost control of his head. Jeff and I had been noticing this for several weeks and while we were very worried that it was most likely a symptom of the progression of PBD-ZSD we knew that if this was the case there was nothing we could do to stop it. PBD-ZSD is a form of leukodystrophy, and at this time science/medicine has not found a way for us to stop the loss/damage of the brain's white matter. We also knew that we'd be seeing several of the top PBD-ZSD specialists in North America at the end of July, so we didn't feel that this warranted an appointment with our "local" neurologist at this time. Although Ethan had been falling and/or losing head control for a split second or so it never seemed to bother him and in a blink of an eye he was back to normal Ethan as if nothing had happened. We were concerned and hoped that we would get some further explanation when Ethan was seen in clinic by the doctors at the GFPD Conference at the end of the month.
I had planned on walking in the park with my friend Stephanie while Ethan was at school. Unfortunately it had started to rain so we changed our plans and met at my house and torture ourselves by attempting a Jillian Michaels' workout video. She is one tough lady!! Shortly after we had finished I got a call from Ethan's school. Ethan had just had an "episode" at school. Ethan's Developmental Therapist/Teacher Dena explained that Ethan had been working with Julie, Ethan's Hearing Therapist/Teacher, and he fell back onto her leg (from sitting), his eyes rolled back into his head, he seemed "out of it" for about 15 seconds and then was acting very tired/lethargic. She called me within moments of the "episode" and I let them know that I would be there as soon as I could.
I left the house immediately, still in my now very sweaty and stinky workout clothes, and headed to school, calling Jeff on the way. Upon arriving at school it was obvious that Ethan was not feeling well. The therapists all explained what they had witnessed and it was agreed that Ethan may have had a seizure. I called his Neurologist's office and left a message with the nurse. Then I called his Primary and talked with the nurse who told us to go to the ER. So, I called Jeff again and let him know that Ethan and I were headed to St. Mary's ER. We arrived at the ER just a few moments after 11am.
Thankfully there were very few people in the waiting room and we were seen by a nurse rather quickly. Then we were moved to a room and seen by another nurse. Jeff arrived shortly afterwards and so did his dad. Jeff had called his dad to let him know that I wouldn't be bringing Ethan by that afternoon for them to watch him so I could go to the dentist and let him know what had happened. Thankfully the wonderful gals at STEPS called and cancelled my dentist appointment for me while I was making phone calls to see what we needed to do.
Our visit to the St. Mary's ER was a lengthy one. Ethan had blood drawn, a CT scan and a chest x-ray. They were trying to figure out if there might be an infection that had triggered the episode or if possibly something had happened to his brain such as a brain bleed/bruise/abnormal growth, etc. It took several hours for all of these tests to be performed and for the results to come back. Thankfully everything was coming back normal, however due to Ethan's complex medical issues his Primary felt that it was best for us to go to Carle to undergo additional testing. We agreed that this was the best option and we would like to see if we could figure out what was going on with our little boy.
So, I made up a list and sent Jeff home to back a bag for us while we waited for transport. I got to ride along with Ethan in the ambulance and Jeff would get everything that we needed and then drive to Carle. It seemed like we waited forever for the ambulance and then after we got on the rode we spent over a half an hour stuck by a train on our way out of town. The trip that should have taken an hour was extended into almost an hour and forty-five minutes and if you have ever ridden in the back of an ambulance you know that it isn't a smooth comfy ride.
Once at Carle, Ethan and I were admitted through their ER and we once again were stuck waiting. Jeff and his parents arrived and we continued to wait. The ER was so busy! Thankfully we had a "room" -- meaning that we got curtained off section of the very busy ER. Many people weren't that lucky as there were a number of people waiting on beds and/or wheelchairs out in the hallway with no privacy at all.
It was nearly 8pm by the time we got settled into our room on the pediatric floor. Talk about an exhausting day. Ethan was tired and grumpy, and to be honest so were we. Thankfully we were able to get Ethan settled for night without to many problems after they started him on IV fluids and was soothed to sleep by his grandparents. We also had a plan of action -- an EEG had been scheduled for the next morning to see what was going on with our little guy's brain.
Although we should have been thankful that we could now go to sleep we found it hard to rest. Not only are the sleeping arrangements uncomfortable, to say the least, it is just hard for me to sleep in a hospital. My brain and heart just can't shut down. I worry, I pray, I think to much about what could happen, wonder how we will be able to handle anymore bad news --- I mean this diagnosis SUCKS and it just seems like we continue to develop more symptoms/problems and continue to become more and more impacted and falling behind the other PBD-ZSD kids that are at the moderate/mild end of the spectrum. It just sucks, and I can't sleep.
On Wednesday, July 3rd Ethan woke up early, which was actually a good thing because we needed him to nap for the EEG later that morning. A little after 9am we were transported down to radiology and Ethan was prepped for the test. He had over 20 electrodes placed on his head. He was VERY UNHAPPY about this process. Then he and Jeff laid down on a regular bed and all the lights were turned off so we could get Ethan to nap. Ethan feel asleep rather quickly, probably because he was distraught about what he had just endured with the placement of the electrodes, and they were able to begin the test. The sleeping portion of the test lasted around 30 minutes. Then we woke him up and they tested him awake with a series of flashing lights. Overall, Ethan did REALLY well for the EEG.
Once it was finished we waited a few minutes in the room until the Neurologist came to see us and report her findings. We were completely shocked to learn that Ethan's EEG was VERY ABNORMAL and that there was SIGNIFICANT SEIZURE ACTIVITY ONGOING. She shared that Ethan was most likely having seizures even as we spoke and that his loss of head control and falling over when sitting or crawling is/was most likely when the seizures were coming one right after another one. She said that the type of seizures that Ethan is having are called atonic seizures and that he may also being having what are called absence seizures as well. She explained that there were a couple of anti-seizure medications that we could try and we decided to go with her first choice which was Depokote. While she believes this will be the most effective medicine for Ethan it is metabolized through the liver and since Ethan is already at risk for liver problems/failure due to PBD-ZSD we will want to monitor his liver function to make sure that the medicine is not having too much negative impact on his liver. If his liver function becomes an issue we will need to try another medication.
After hearing the devastating news from the neurologist we returned to the pediatric floor and Ethan was given an IV loading dose of Depokote. He stayed on the IVs for the rest of Wednesday. In the afternoon Ethan's geneticist stopped by to visit and so did the hospitalist. Our geneticist fought for us to be released and come back in a few days for another EEG and the hospitalist agreed that this would be possible, however the neurologist wanted to keep us overnight again just to make sure that Ethan was tolerating the Depokote. So, after getting our hopes up a bit, we settled in for another night at the hospital.
Ethan went to bed around 7:30pm but woke up at 2:30am on Thursday, July 4th. He stayed awake for the next 5 plus hours! It was miserable!!! There was nothing that we could do to make him happy. At one point we gave him some Tylenol thinking that he might be in pain, later the nurse checked his IV and ended up removing it to see if that was causing his distress. Nothing was making our little guy happy. We walked the loop around the pediatric floor, etc. My loving husband let me sleep from about 5 to 5:45am -- I was mentally, emotionally and physically exhausted. Ethan finally went back to sleep a little before 8am and sleep about an hour and a half. Jeff was able to rest then as well. We had asked the lab to hold up on sending someone to draw Ethan's blood so he could sleep as long as possible, but labs needed to be drawn to measure the level of Depokote in Ethan's system so around 9:30am the doctor and nurse said that they needed to be done. I was not looking forward to having to wake Ethan up to a blood draw, but somehow he must have known because he woke up on his own about 5 minutes after we were told that someone was on the way to our room to do the blood draw.
Since it was the holiday we weren't sure how quickly the lab would get things processed. The neurologist needed to get these results so she could adjust Ethan's Depokote dose if the levels in his system was too low or too high. A little before noon the Neurologist came by and said that they were lower than she had hoped so they gave Ethan another loading dose of the medicine, this time through his G-tube. After that was done we were told that the discharge process could begin! At first we thought we would just get to go home for the afternoon/night and have to return the next day for another test, but when we shared that we would be back the following week for an appointment with the GI, she said we could just come back then for the EEG and for a follow-up appointment with her. This was great news! Also, since Ethan's body would have over a week's worth of anti-seizure meds waiting a few extra days before we do another EEG should let the neurologist have a better idea if the Depokote is "working." So, after getting instructions about dosage/administration and follow-up testing and appointments we were given the okay to go home! We made it back home in the early afternoon.
My parents drove up and visited with us for a few hours. They were glad to get to spend some time with Ethan and he especially enjoyed playing with his Grandpa Chambliss and getting lots of hugs and kisses from his Grandma Chambliss. After my parents headed back home we spent a quiet evening at home. Ethan went to bed without much of a fuss and Jeff and I watched fireworks on television --- we saw parts of the firework displays from New York City, Washington D.C. and Philadelphia. We missed not getting to go and enjoy the fireworks with friends, as we had hoped to do, but after being in the hospital and the lack of sleep that we all had the previous night, we just stayed home.
We've now been home from the hospital for almost a week and it has been exactly one week since we learned that Ethan has seizures. Adding another medicine to Ethan's daily regiment hasn't been difficult. One HUGE praise of the g-tube is that Ethan doesn't have to taste all of the medicines he takes -- and this boy takes a ton! Now that we are aware that his loss of head control and falling over are typically seizure related, we seem to be noticing it more but now we are looking for it. I'm not sure if the medicine is really helping or not yet. Tonight was the first evening that we could increase the dosage. We will return for another EEG on Friday as well as a follow-up visit with the Neurologist and our regularly scheduled appointment with the GI doctor.
Prayer Requests
- Pray that the medication will be able to control Ethan's seizures and that he would no longer actively have them. Pray for his safety since the seizures cause him to lose muscle tone and he could become seriously injured and/or stop breathing because of them. Seizures are scary, even when they don't always "appear" frightening.
- Pray that we will have good results from the upcoming EEG and appointments with Neurology and the GI. Pray that we will be able to see if there is any possible correlation between the onset of the seizures and the possible need to increase his steroids that treat his adrenal problems -- there are other PBD-ZSD families that have seen this correlation in their own children.
- Pray that Jeff and I will be strong. In our heart we just thought we weren't going to have to worry about seizures. Not all PBD-ZSD kids have them, probably less than half, and since he is almost 3 and we hadn't seen any we thought we had "made it." When it comes to this stupid disease it just seems like it is always one more thing/symptom/issue.
- Pray that Ethan would continue to grow, develop, learn, and be happy despite this new obstacle. We are still praying that we will someday get a first step and that someday we might hear a real "momma" and "daddy." He still has no words and hasn't developed many new sounds in a while. He has very few signs/gestures and as of now picture or object exchange/communication are not something that Ethan has had any success at learning. Ethan's lack of communication is very frustrating to him and us as his parents. Unless you have a child who struggles to communicate you will never truly understand what it is like to desire with all of your heart to hear/have signed/communicated to you through a picture or object system simple things like "mom," "dad," "I love you," and of course the fact that Ethan can't tell us what he wants/needs/if he is hurting or scared or sad or upset. For me personally Ethan's lack of communication is probably the most frustrating thing about PBD-ZSD at this point/stage. I struggle and get so low when I hear the "conversations" that typically developing children who aren't even 2 years old yet can have and it just breaks my heart. I just want to know what my son needs so I can help him and comfort him and be able to do all I can for him to enjoy his life.
- Pray for all families impacted by PBD-ZSD and other diseases/conditions that steal so much from our children and our families. This is a very tough road. As Ethan's parents there is no option accept taking everything one day at a time, and loving our son, but it doesn't mean that we still don't struggle daily with what we think "should be" and what just doesn't seem "fair."
- Pray for the upcoming 2013 GFPD Conference that is later this month in Lincoln, NE. We are excited to say that between our Pancakes for PBD-ZSD event and a small grant that we received that we will be able to attend conference without worrying financially. Thank you to everyone who helped make this possible! We should even have enough left over to help other families via the GFPD Conference Scholarship Fund. There is not going to be a national conference next year (as they are most likely going to become every other year events with smaller "regional" get togethers planned for the non conference years) but we are still planning on having our Pancakes for PBD-ZSD event annually and raise funds for the GFPD Conference Scholarship Fund so that families like ours will be able to get the assistance needed to attend conferences. We are looking forward to seeing many members of our GFPD family but are very saddened by the fact that some of the children that attended last year are no longer with us.
- Pray for all of the therapists, teachers, doctors, nurses and researchers that have dedicated their lives to helping children with PBD-ZSD reach their fullest potential. We need REAL treatment options and a CURE. Pray that the researchers and specialists would have the wisdom needed to find ways to improve the lives of kids like Ethan.
- Pray that somehow in the midst of all of this that we will continue to find a way to shine for Jesus and continue to feel His love, strength, and comfort each and every step of this journey. It is so hard for me to see at times how this all makes sense and brings God the glory, but I believe deep down in my soul that it is supposed to/will in one way or another.

San Francisco: Luke Butler: Captain!
Event Details: Luke Butler: Captain! - :
Jason Hanasik is a San Francisco-based artist and will be contributing reviews of art installations around the city. Hanasik has an MFA from the California College of the Arts in San Francisco, CA, and a BFA Summa Cum Laude from the State University of New York at Purchase. Hanasik is currently an instructor at the ASUC Art Studio at the University of California at Berkeley. His work has been exhibited widely and published in various journals and publications. This spring a portfolio of his project, "He Opened Up Somewhere Along the Eastern Shore," will be published in the Society for Photographic Education's journal, Exposure, with a thoughtful essay by the artist, critic and curator, Tammy Rae Carland. For this piece, Hanasik reviewed Luke Butler's Captain! showing now at the Silverman Gallery.
"Please report to the bridge."
There is something awry in the world of men at Luke Butler's first solo exhibition at Silverman Gallery in San Francisco. This installation presents a dozen or so new paintings and collages from his Enterprise and Leaders of Men series, continuing Butler's ongoing investigation and ultimate undermining of male power symbols of the 1960s and 70s.
I have watched these projects develop from a few pieces in his MFA thesis exhibition through its installation at Second Floor Projects and finally now at Silverman Gallery. Each time I see a new work in either series, I am amazed not only by the technical leaps he has made as a painter and collage artist but also by the extension of the concepts he continues to mine.
For a long time in the Enterprise series, Butler would simply key the background out of the original scene. The viewer was left looking at one of the iconic (almost always male) characters from Star Trek writhing about on an open plane of grey. I say simply, not in a pejorative sense, but as a means to illustrate what the viewer was presented with when looking at the painting. Each time I saw a new work, I would shuttle through the few episodes I remember having seen as a kid and try to recall not specific scenes, but if, in fact, Captain Kirk or his fellow mates had really ever been in such wonderfully vulnerable positions. Be it story structure, narrative flow, or just good old bad memory, I can never seem to remember these types of moments. (Ultimately, who cares whether they actually happened in the series or not, though I imagine they did.) Nonetheless, Butler explores what image-making does best: he imagines a world that should exist while questioning the one that currently does. Instead of conquering new worlds, these men are in flux trying to figure out their own bodies, emotions, and existing worlds. Even the title is telling: Enterprise. Instead of the stern, well-mannered, private CEOs that one generally sees in charge, Butler presents an intimate view of these men. Maybe they will grow into that stoic, impenetrable image of masculinity, but in Captain!, these men are figuring out how to lead as they go and Butler is there, paintbrush in hand, showing us all the messy mistakes and awkward positions they find themselves in.
His second series, shown interspersed with the Enterprise paintings, is called Leaders of Men. In this project, Butler decapitates nude male figures pulled from the pages of publications like Playgirl and replaces their heads with Presidents Ford and Nixon. Cleverly choosing the men who were leading the United States around the time of the Star Trek miniseries, Butler moves away from the film still and into the fantastically confusing space of desire. These collages are not as "perfect" as anything done in Photoshop; however, Butler's attention to light, shadow, color, and even the tone of the source paper from which the presidential image is culled makes them appear almost seamless. So much so, that the first time I saw them, I thought Butler was (re)presenting a private image he surreptitiously gathered from a president's personal archive.
At first, the only thing I could think of with these works is how much I wanted to put one of these pieces in my bathroom. As trite as that sounds, these collages are absolutely beautiful to behold, especially Leader of Men 38: Wolverine. The more I thought about why I liked these collages and wanted to live with one permanently, the more I realized that they make me very uncomfortable. I had always viewed these images in a deserted gallery, or would wait to look at them after others had left the room. They felt wrong in all the right ways.
Moving away from the desire they surprisingly incite, the works included in the Leaders of Men series also do other, equally engaging work. Like the Enterprise paintings, Butler shifts the attention away from what the source imagery is supposed to be doing — represent power, bestow a sense of calmness in the face of adversity, etc. — and reminds us of a leader's humanity and his sexuality. Ultimately, it appears that Butler is undermining what Richard Brilliant says every leader has already figured out: "[a] coincidence of self-awareness and self-making through a lifetime of appearances on the public stage*." If only we didn't hold these men — and by proxy all persons — to such a high standard of impregnability, we wouldn't have to see them nude to realize how covered up they really are. At least, in Luke Butler's world, we are all given a glimpse of that possibility and what a wonderful possibility that world seems to be.
