Caleb's Commercial Debut

Last week we had an appointment scheduled for Caleb at the muscle disease clinic. At these appointments he is seen by a bunch of specialists (usually the neurologist, pulmonologist, orthopaedic surgeon, PT and OT) that monitor him and address any issues. A couple of weeks ago the San Diego MDA contacted us and said that the MDA was making a new NATIONAL commercial and would be in town filming, and would we mind if they filmed Caleb's Dr.'s appointment as part of the commercial? Of course we wouldn't mind.

So, at the appointment we got treated a little like movie stars - make-up and hair, and a wardrobe consult for both of us. Caleb was so funny about getting make-up - he kept asking if he was "pretty"? Anyway, it was fun to be part of the production, but it did make a long Dr.'s appointment even longer.

I'll keep you posted as to when the finished product will air. I think it will be on local stations around the time of the Telethon (Labor Day weekend).

Here are some pictures from the day... Mostly Caleb photography :)
