Nathan, Sunny, and Ed Peeples waiting for the bus on Sunny's first day at school. Last year Nathan had a major seizure at school, we are hoping that with Sunny there he will have a safer experience. Today Ed Peeples and Nathan are going to put on an assembly for the school. We are then going to walk through how Nathan will care for Sunny at school. We will be doing a fire drill, going to gym, foods, his locker, the cafeteria, sitting at a desk, where to keep a water bowl for Sunny, and where to take Sunny out to use the restroom. It is a lot of information and a lot of new things for Nathan and Sunny to learn but I know they will get it. What a big day!
Here Sunny is alerting Nathan during the assembly that Nathan is low. Luckily he alerted right before they went on so we got juice into Nathan and knew that Nathan would do just fine. I am sure the kids got a kick out of see a live alert and the teachers then could know exactly what to expect. I thought Nathan, Sunny, and Ed did great during the assembly. Ed was able to explain what a service dog is, how he will help Nathan, and what the rules are for the kids regarding Sunny.
You can only see a small part of the gym in this picture but the kids filled the whole place up. The assemble was for 900 kids and all of the staff. Way to go Nathan, Sunny, and Ed!
