#pars defect

ocular motor apraxia: im basing this off my experiences w/ the condition, so it may not be accurate to everyone that has it. 1. clonelin's eyes "lock" a lot, meaning they get stuck looking in one direction, resulting in rapid blinking or jerking of the head/neck to "unlock". this is worse when theyre tired. its not painful usually, just really annoying. they have trouble with reading or otherwise focusing on certain tasks due to this. they also cant look left/right to the full extent without turning/jerking their head. again, worsens when tired

cerebellar hypoplasia: same as above, based on my experiences w/ the condition! poor balance and fine motor skills, especially when they first are created/mimicking collin, but it gets a bit better with time, but it doesn t fully go away of course. another thing, they get absent seizures (technically a separate thing, but for me these 2 were related issues), especially triggered by flashing lights but also happen at random. this means sometimes theyll be seen staring blankly for a few seconds before coming back. it freaks collin out until he figures out whats happening. clonelin has thankfully only been injured once or twice during a seizure, unrelated to the seizure itself. they also have an intellectual disability (mild, but its there) (again, technically a separate thing, but im p sure its connected for me)

chronic pain: clonelin gets a lottttt of lower back pain and has to lay down a lot due to it. esp if theyve been standing or sitting for an extended period, or lifting or bending or doing anything straining on their back. the pain is due to a defect/fracture in their spine (pars defect).

clonelin doesnt "look" disabled to the average person, esp because theyve been able to adapt thru mimicking collin, but theyre still disabled and still have bad days.
