maximus -- given the occasional issues with package delivery, I would recommend bringing the cell phone with you on A Day -- reorgy week is very very busy, so he may not get to the post office -- plus they will be inundated with other packages and delivery may be delayed. Your son will have access to his own land line phone in his room (although someone will hopefully tell him what he needs to dial to get an outside line -another story for another time
) Also, given the fact that he can't speak outside of his room, it's not like having a cell phone will be all that helpful.
We brought our son's phone on A Day, but were able to speak w/ him when he was free during reorgy week (twice?) via his land line. He did email a lot after getting his computer so I had his shopping list for school supplies and other things he "needed" (a case of mountain dew
).
