To Move or Not To Move?

I have been dying to get out of this tiny town. I always wanted and pictured myself living in California somewhere someday. Perferably Southern California. We live in a small town along the coast on the Cali/Oregon border. So if wouldn't be a huge out of place change. Problem is my husband would prefer to stay in Oregon, rather to move more up north.
Our main concern now, that family we have here is starting to make plans of moving away, is how much more special care and financial help we could receive for our son. They have clinics I've read about that work specifically with kids with Cerebral Palsy. Clinics we'd have to drive hours and hours to get to where we are right now. How much more he could be learning right now and how much faster he could be learning it. He recieves physical therapy weekly right now and will soon begin some others but the area doesnt have a lot of options or anything past this to pursue.
So Im on a mission to find out the most I can about CP clinics, help, insurance coverage etc etc that Cali offers over Oregon. That way he can't help but say yes to moving where I prefer!

Other then that not much new to report. Hubercito has his nurse practitioner and occupational therapist (for the 1st time) coming tomorrow but I can't remember what is set up for today...too many appts to remember!! The last couple nights his right side cheek and ear have turned bright red and was hot to the touch while the rest of his face was normal. I looked it up online and narrowed it down to an earache or teething so Im anxious for his nurse to look at him tomorrow. It only happens for about an hour at night though, then just clears itself up....weird.
