THIS IS WHAT WE'VE BEEN WAITING FOR | Making Big Changes For Our Disabled Daughter

[@jeanniefox3350]

Congratulations on your new home and new car! Crissie you have more energy than the energizer bunny! No worries I’ll be here and I’m sure most all your subscribers will be here to witness the big reveal, you seem to have a magic touch in everything you tackle making it beautiful!👋👋🫶🙏

[@laurieg6416]

A new house! A new vehicle! So exciting! We'll still be here when you have a spare energy unit available. 😊

[@angiemarquez06]

That is amazing that Avery has a accessible bedroom and bathroom

[@brandispry576]

I am just so excited for y’all ❤ It seems like you’re FINALLY getting the assistance you need having a special needs child. I love how Avery went quiet and looked around for Eli when he came into the room 🥹

[@micheledavis3735]

I'm very happy for you and nobody deserves it more. You look happy and I don't care when you last washed your hair! Your new home will be lovely and after moving you can take your time and make it your own. It's what you've waited for! As for the van, what fun! I much prefer manual transmissions but I've gotten used to my automatic. It's just deceptively fast when I think I'm going the speed limit. I set my Waze to warn me at 5 miles over the limit! Have fun and enjoy the process. Everyone who knows you will be here waiting. Sending so much love. Never lose sight of your bliss... 🩵 Chele

Congratulations on the new house! It sounds like a lot of work of course but you’ll be able to save so much money. Additionally, you can do the renovations according to your personal taste which is always nice.

[@marilyndekker1541]

Exciting new for sure. This is so exciting a new vehicle,(which in Canada anyways all u can get are automatics). Crissy, anything you decorate is well done, even when you couldn't hang anything on the walls. You still found away to make it work. I will be praying for funds or grants to come into get that car seat for Avery. Take care.

[@brittanniavolkmer6835]

[@natwilkins1492]

Hi crissie Congratulations on your new car. I watched your vlog this afternoon where you said it would be expensive to get Avery a specialised car seat and then I thought for a second and it came to me this question I know it’s none of my business but it might help save money in the long-term with the van does it have a ramp and when Avery gets a Wheelchair, will she be travelling in it, as most people when they get a van they put their children in the Wheelchair because that can be one of the safest place. I don’t know if it’s the same in Wales but I know in the UK you can usually get a wheelchair on the NHS, which costs no money, so I just wondered if he thought of letting travel in her wheelchair in the long room. Maybe you could push that forward and see if they can give it to you sooner rather than later so you don’t have to buy such an expensive car seat. it’s just an option, but I didn’t know if you knew about it i’m so glad things are going your way. Are you still have a caravan in Wales in Prestatyn? I absolutely loved it and I often find that the people there are more excepting of disabilities or at least that was my opinion during the time I spent there as I say, my information might be useless, but it also might be a thing to look at to avoid the big cost also Worcs looking at whether you can get a grant for the car seat there’s usually places that give these grants because expenses for disabled stuff is so high I know that I was lucky when I was younger I went through a charity called Whizz Kids and they gave me a private manual chair that was mine which meant it could have more adaptions I also got a trike from a charity as well as an electric wheelchair that was from a charity which means it can last longer than what you were done. The NHS usually a child usually last possibly 2 to 3 years depending on how quick you grow whereas when they give you one from a charity they aim to make it less longer and it’s more personal you can pick colours. And accessories usually I don’t know if you already have so I apologise if you have but it might be worth speaking to the physiotherapy and OT department for Avery because it seems very wrong that you have to pay such an amount of money for a car seat, so maybe they know how you can get, the car seat cheaper or maybe there’s a secondhand one that somebody can’t use anymore or maybe they can give you one grant you never know I know when my Nan and Grandad applied to have a downstairs bathroom for me they had to buy the path outside because that was a Public path but I needed the extra space to turn into my room so they paid for a little bit of a path but I think they got funding for my room. If I remember rightly I don’t remember them paying a lot of money for it they did decorate it. Mine was a new bill. They just had to find out House that could have an input on, I could be wrong obviously because I was only six and I wasn’t really involved in the meetings as it’s something she might be some kind of loop that you can go through. I think there should be. I don’t think you should have to pay an extra amount because your child has a disability it’s not like they asked to be disabled, I’m not meaning just you I’m mean in general I think it’s wrong that things cost so much more always work looking at charities they’re always willing to help genuine people. I think it’s wrong that companies make more money off disabled people. I hope this is a little bit of help and I hope you see it in time before you spend any money so you have options. Good luck with the move. I know what it’s like. I moved into my bungalow years ago in September I have lived independently ever since and I absolutely love it. I don’t love that my disability has got Worcs and now I need more care than I did back then but that was one moves. I did that the doctor said I would never do so I prove them wrong, if you can’t get funding or anything maybe do a go fund me. I’m sure the people that watch these videos would be glad to help Avery it’s worth a try. Do you have a PO Box as I would like to send a little gift for the children that they can have in their room, just something small like a welcome to your new room and May you thrive here kind of thing just a nice little gift nothing extravagant. I specially wanted to get something special for Avery too when I’m feeling down. I watch your vlogs and see Avery’s face, it makes me feel a little bit better.

[@mummyandavery]

We did think of this, Avery is on the waiting list for a wheelchair assessment. We will only keep this can for 3 years so we figured we could make do for now and then explore a wheelchair accessible van in three years xx

[@biddiemutter3481]

I was just thinking about you yesterday and wondering how you all are doing. Good news..but I hope you are all feeling better today.

[@aliciakillen1940]

Exciting for you all!

[@annepreston3651]

Wonderful news on your new home

[@elaine4498]

Congratulations on the new house. Knowing you it will all look good very soon. I dont envy your moving again but it will be better in the long run❤❤

[@lisaingram4284]

That’s fantastic. So much easier on you all but my question shouldn’t the person or council be fixing the house ? I hope you’re not spending your own money . In Australia the housing commission has to do it & have it prepared ready to move in

[@mummyandavery]

The council will leave it bare. It’s pretty standard for council homes to have bare floors and walls. It just so happens that the house we have was recently re plastered so it was a bit more work. Normally the walls would be painted magnolia xx

[@gilliangoodman6362]

No need to apologise,😊I'm sure we've all gone through the moving at some point and it is stressful ❤❤

[@krafttee1]

So happy to hear about the new house and van. Will the boys have to change schools? I’ll be patiently waiting on your decorating the new house videos whenever you can post

[@mummyandavery]

No luckily they can stay in the same schools 🥰

[@Daffodils-z1c]

[@rachelkeyte1002]

Wow, definitely a surprise about the new house. Was not expecting that. So, I'm wondering why you need to do work to a council house? Wouldn't it be up to them to do that? Anyway, congratulations on that new.

[@mummyandavery]

Nope they come without floors, without a cooker and in our case without painted walls 😂 I think they’re usually painted but ours was newly plastered xx

[@hollybennison4802]

I needed this got the worst uti ever having to have a X-ray on my bladder to see what’s going on and I am so scared and finally getting the uti vacation

[@mummyandavery]

I feel for you. I had another UTI last week too xx

What is a wet room?

[@LC-qv8jz]

@iamrockette A room which usually has a drain in the floor and you can rinse off or shower without dragging dirt through the house.

[@mummyandavery]

Yeah it’s essentially a bathroom but there’s no lip or step to the shower

[@ThewaughCW]

Congratulations 🎊

What is a counsel house?

[@marilyndekker1541]

According to Google, its own by the city, town or village and is offered at reduced rent. We would probably call it subsidized housing or gear to income.

[@mummyandavery]

That’s right, houses owned by the council and the rent is much cheaper and they’re much more secure than private renting xx

[@aliciakillen1940]

For us Americans can you explain what a “council house “is?

[@mummyandavery]

They’re properties owned by the city council, the rent is cheaper, you can do much more with them and they’re more secure xx

[@belgiumEurovisionWatson]

You can redecorate the wet room without asking for permision

[@mummyandavery]

We’re looking to completely renovate it, the floor and wall tiles need replacing xx
